The Fourth International DAM WORLD Conference Organisers are not authorised to assist with the VISA process beyond providing the Notification of Acceptance Letter and Invitation Letter. The invitation letter will be issued after the successful registration and it must be requested during the Registration process in Conference ConfTool Plataform. Should your Visa application be denied by the Portuguese Authorities, the Fourth International DAM WORLD Conference Organisers cannot change the decision of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, nor will the Conference Organisers engage in discussion or correspondence with the Embassy on behalf of the applicant.

Visas may take a few months to be issued, the Conference Organisers strongly recommend to proceed with your registration as soon as possible, as you will need the Notification of Acceptance Letter and Invitation Letter to apply for a Visa.

Note: During your stay in Portugal, if you come from a Non-European Member State, you are advised to have suitable insurance coverage for emergency medical or other needs.
