*VISA WAIVER COUNTRIES*

Citizens of countries participating in the Visa Waiver Program do not
need to apply for visas to attend the Conference. You may enter the
United States using just your passports and your Conference Registration
Notice. At the port of entry into the U.S, please request to be given a
"Visa Waiver for Business" (WB) status. That will allow you to stay in
the U.S. for the length of the Conference. The Visa Waiver countries are:

Andorra
Australia
Austria
Belgium
Brunei
Denmark
Finland
France
Germany
Iceland
Ireland
Italy
Japan
Liechtenstein
Luxembourg
Monaco
New Zealand
Norway
Portugal
San Marino
Singapore
Slovenia
Spain
Sweden
Switzerland
The Netherlands
United Kingdom

*NON-VISA WAIVER COUNTRIES*

Citizens of countries not participating in the Visa Waiver Program will
need to request a Business (B-1) visa at the nearest U.S. Consulate.
Please present at the Consulate your Conference Registration Notice,
along with your valid passport. We urge you to do this EARLY, as there
are often delays in this process. Official letters of invitation
(without financial commitment) to help overcome administrative
difficulties in some countries can be sent upon written request to the
conference administrator.

*CANADA*

Although Canada is not a Visa Waiver country, Canadian citizens do not
need to apply for visas at the U.S. Consulate. Citizens of Canada may
enter the country using just their passports, along with their
Conference Registration Notice. Please request at the port of entry
status as a Visitor for Business (B-1).
