TOMORROW: ICANN68 Travel Support Deadline
Executive: David Olive, Senior Vice President, Policy Development Support

INFORMATION SHARING
Community travel support requests for ICANN68 are due to the relevant community group support team by Friday, 21 February 2020.

The deadline for submissions is critical to allow for Office of Foreign Assets Control review, travel arrangements, and confirmed reservations as required for visa applications.

Benefits of having community travel support requests 120 days before the next ICANN Public Meeting include:
  • Allow ICANN org to gather the documentation required (hotel and flight confirmations) for supported travelers to apply for their visa.
  • Allow enough time for supported travelers to complete and submit their visa application, which often vary per ICANN Public Meeting location.
  • Allow enough time for supported travelers to apply for a transit visa (if required), which often vary per ICANN Public Meeting location.
  • Allow ICANN org to purchase less expensive airfares.
  • Allow supported travelers to plan their pre-and-post ICANN Public Meeting travel in advance.
  • Allow ICANN org to set-up supported travelers in advance as vendors with Finance allowing us to wire their per diem/stipend funds in a timelier manner.
