25 July 2016, I would like to share details on visa applications to assist all who are attending ICANN57 Annual General Meeting in Hyderabad with your travel planning.<br>
<br>
We have worked extensively with the India government to ensure a clear and smooth process for all Indian visa applications. They have also assured us that all ICANN57 visa applications will be treated as priority.<br>
<br>
All delegates requiring visas to India should visit <a href="http://www.mea.gov.in/indian-missions-abroad.htm"><span style="text-decoration:none">here</span></a> to find the nearest India diplomatic mission to apply for your visa. You must apply for a <strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Conference
Visa</span></strong>. Please refer to the <a href="https://meetings.icann.org/en/hyderabad57/visa-application-guide-india"><span style="text-decoration:none">guide</span></a> we have put together for reference. Apply early as the process could take up to two
weeks. You will also need <a href="https://invitationletters.icann.org/"><span style="text-decoration:none">invitation letters</span></a> from ICANN and the local host, which may take another two weeks to generate.<br>
<br>
Do take note that the e-Tourist Visa will not be applicable for our ICANN meeting. Any traveler trying to enter India with the e-Tourist Visa may be denied entry. If you have an existing valid Business Visa, you need not apply for the Conference Visa.<br>
<br>
We have set up a dedicated email (<a href="mailto:icann57visasupport@icann.org%29"><span style="text-decoration:none">icann57visasupport@icann.org)</span></a> that you can contact should you need any further clarification about the visa.<br>
<br>
Remember to <a href="https://registration.icann.org/register.php?id=Hyderabad57"><span style="text-decoration:none">register</span></a> for ICANN57 and check our <a href="https://meetings.icann.org/en/hyderabad57"><span style="text-decoration:none">meeting
site</span></a> for regular updates. Lastly, don't forget to attend the webinar on 7 September 2016 (1500 UTC) where we will share more information on ICANN57, logistics, accommodations and travel. Look out for our announcement and join us then. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
