Plan your IMCAS in Goa
Depending on your nationality and the country in which the congress is being held, you may be required to obtain a visa in order to attend. Please contact the country embassy / consulate closest to your place of residence to verify the full requirements concerning visas.
You may apply for:
- a Tourist Visa
- or a Business Visa
We strongly suggest that you apply for a simple Tourist Visa, as applying for a Business Visa requires a number of supporting documents.
If, however, you wish to apply for a Business Visa, we can send you an Invitation Letter that will bear the stamp of the IMCAS HEAD OFFICE. You may also be required to provide additional supporting documents such as a hotel reservation. IMCAS is unable to provide you with any additional supporting documents, these are your responsibility.
To obtain your Invitation Letter please follow the process outlined below.
What is the procedure?
- Register for the congress at least six weeks in advance (the delay for obtaining a visa varies according to the country).
- Once your registration has been processed we will send you an invoice, take note of its number.
- Fill in the request form not forgetting to include your invoice number in the appropriate field.
- Your Invitation Letter will be sent to you by email within 3 working days.
