Austria Visa Request Process for ICST Conferences

Over the past couple years the obtaining of a visa has become more complex which requires more attention, energy and time. Additionally, embassies have different requirements. Some may request:

• a letter from ICST verifying intentions of conference participant
• confirmation that the paper was accepted
• a receipt that conference fees have been paid in full
• appearance or interview by conference participant

As a result of these requirements by some embassies, ICST encourages attendees to apply no later than 3 (three) months prior the conference.

ICST will issue visa letters to:

• keynote speakers, presenters, panelists
• any organizing committee member
• people professionally or personally known by a committee member
• conference participant who has paid their registration fee in full and are not from a country embargoed by the U.S. Treasury Dept Office of Foreign Control (Cuba, Iran, Libya and Sudan)

To request a visa letter please provide the following information:

• conference/workshop title, date and location
• the amount of fees paid by the requestor
• your intention as either a participant, presenter, committee member, speaker, panelist, etc.
