However, should you need an official invitation letter for visa application purposes, you may contact Congress staff who will provide a letter for you. You must include your name and address exactly as this information appears in your passport and send an email requesting an invitation letter. No exhibit or registration fee refunds will be issued for cancellation or non-attendance due to failure to obtain a visa.
