TRAVEL & ACCOMMODATION
VISA
In July 2013 a decree was issued by the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs that an invitation letter by the trade show organizer is as a rule no longer needed when applying for visa in order to attend a trade show in Germany. All Visa Centers as well as German Embassies and Consulates were informed about this decree here.
Moreover visa fees are waived for exhibitors at German trade fairs - click here to view. Please refer in your visa application to this. If an embassy insists on a letter of invitation, please fill in this form and send it to: marketing@fespa.com
Additional information regarding the visa application procedure, requirements for the issue and application forms in different languages are available at the website "visa regulations" of the German Foreign Office as well as at the respective websites of the embassies and consulates general. Persons requiring a visa to enter Germany should submit their applications in good time prior to the respective trade show.
If you need to apply for a visa to enter Germany, please check the appointment availability before registration - A visa application is possible up to three months before entry.

BEWARE OF SCAMS
Exhibitors are being targeted by companies claiming to be, or work with, the event organisers. They use existing event branding and may appear genuine. In the past this has included offering good rates on hotel bookings. All exhibitors should check the small print before signing anything relating to FESPA’s exhibitions and events and thoroughly check out the company to be assured they are genuine.
If in doubt, please contact FESPA by email at info@fespa.com. Please note that AVANTEL Hotel Reservation GmbH is the sole official accommodation agency for FESPA Global Print Expo and European Sign Expo 2023. If you are contacted by other agencies, it may be with fraudulent intent.
