ETCC 2024

“COATINGS EVOLUTION”
VISA APPLICATION


Citizens from some countries may require a Visa to come to France.
The detailed information concerning visa requirements is available at Ministry of Foreign Affairs:

http://www.diplomatie.gouv.fr/en/coming-to-france/requesting-a-visa/

It is the sole responsibility of the attendee to take care of his/her visa requirements. Attendees who require an entry visa must allow sufficient time for the application procedure. Attendees should contact the nearest embassy or consulate to determine the appropriate timing of their visa applications.

It is recommended to apply for a visa at least 2 months in advance of the ETCC 2024.

Invitation letter for visa application

PULSAR EVENTS will only provide invitation letters for visa for registered participants. You can request to receive a visa invitation letter during the online registration process, please have your passport details at hand.
Once your registration and payment will be successfully finalised, the invitation letter will be sent to your email as a PDF file upon providing all the required information within 10 working days at the latest.

However, should the embassy require an original invitation letter, we can deliver it by two following ways:

1) Regular post – free of charge, however, the delivery cannot be guaranteed as there is no way to track the delivery. The organisers shall not be held responsible or liable for any delay or failure in delivery.

2) Express delivery service (FedEx, DHL) – the fee shall be covered by the participant in advance, together with the congress fee. The express delivery fee is 30–60 EUR, depending on country of delivery. The organiser strongly recommends using this option as it is faster and enables the delivery to be tracked (using a tracking number).
The invitation letter should be presented to the embassy of France in your country in order to receive a Visa for the Congress.
In case of a visa request rejection, the full registration fee will be only refunded upon receipt of the official refusal document from the Embassy.
