Confirmation

Upon receipt of the correct registration fee, each participant will receive a confirmation of registration.

For onsite participants, please bring the confirmation along with you to the congress (digitally or printed). You will be able to print your personal name badge by scanning the barcode displayed on your registration confirmation at the pre-paid registration stations in the registration area.

Instructions and log-in details for online access will be provided by email to registered participants at several points leading up to the congress.

Letter of Invitation

A letter of invitation can be requested during the registration process. Such an invitation is intended to help potential participants raise travel funds or obtain a visa. It is not a commitment on the part of the congress to provide any financial support.

Invitation letters will not be issued to those registering for online access only. Queries regarding invitation letters can be directed to the registration department at eccmidregistration@escmid.org.
