Need a visa?
Since the summer 2013, submitting an invitation letter from the trade fair organiser when filing for a trade fair visa has no longer been required. Exhibitors are asked to submit an Exhibitor Acceptance Form issued by the relevant trade fair company when requesting a visa; the visa can then be issued free of charge. For specific visa requirements (documents to enclose, deadlines etc.) please inquire at the responsible local embassy or consulate. Be sure to contact the embassy or consulate at the earliest time possible. AUMA, the Association of the German Trade Fair Industry, has published information on visa application requirements for specific countries which you may access here here.
If necessary, we will gladly assist you by issuing an invitation letter. Please file your request here:
