FULFILLING YOUR OBLIGATIONS
Dear participants,
We wish to remind you that IMMC6 is less than a month away.
We ask all participants who have paid their conference fees but did not register at our website to take time and finish the registration in order to prevent possible difficulties upon arrival to Registration desk.
We ask all participants who did not yet reserve accommodation to quicken the procedure due to limited number of rooms available and the deadline (two weeks before the start of the Conference) after which we cannot guarantee room availability. This matter is important because September is traditionally filled with various Trade Fairs and reserving your hotel room may become difficult if not done on time.
All participants needing Entry Visas should finish the Conference fee payment urgently in order to receive an Invitation Letter and make the application on time. Please ensure all fees are paid with bank option AUR, which must be written next to the amount. It makes the payment successfully completed only after the full fee has arrived to our bank.
All participants who do not require a Visa to enter Croatia but did not pay their Conference fees should confirm their participation by sending a short note confirming their arrival. You can do this also by sending an email at immc6.loc@gmail.com. This will reserve your spot at the conference.
Participants who did not pay their meal fee can still finish the payment at the Registration desk upon arrival. We emphasize that individual meal arrangements in Hotel Antunovic and Hotel Holiday are not preferred. Paying the meal fees also enables you to attend the scientific excursion and the closing ceremony dinner party.
We encourage all presenters from the scientific program announced at our website to send their PowerPoint presentations at immc6.loc@gmail.com (this will help you avoid a queue and make sure your presentation is virus free). Alternatively, bring it on a USB stick to the Conference Registration Desk.
For all of those who have fulfilled all of their obligations please ignore this message.
We are looking forward to seeing you all at the Conference!
