VISA INFORMATION:

The invitation letter for ICANN 56 Helsinki Meeting is now open. Individuals that will need a visa to enter Finland and/or any Schengen country to attend the meeting can go to ICANN's website: https://invitationletters.icann.org/, to apply for the letter.

ICANN's local host will be supplying the local host letter to those who apply on the invitation letter website.

We highly urge individuals who do not have a valid Schengen visa to apply as early as possible as the visa process is time consuming. All participants who apply for a visa will have to book an appointment to have their fingerprints taken and etc. In some locations, Finland is represented by another government, in these cases ICANN's local host will have no way to influence the application process.
