Visas

Many international exhibitors will require a visitor visa to enter the United States. Consult the following for more information and helpful links:

• The U.S. government's Business Visitor Visa Type B-1 webpage, and
• The Visa section of the International Attendees webpage.

The Academy provides international exhibitors with a specific letter of invitation to use when applying for a Visa, which can be customized for each company representative traveling to New Orleans. The exhibitor Letter of Invitation is available now in the Exhibitor Portal.

Creating a letter of invitation or requesting an embossed letter is easy. Log into the Exhibitor Portal, select the 'Letter of Invitation' brown tab and complete all required fields. Have passport information ready and express mail account information if you are requesting an embossed copy. You will receive an email confirmation for each letter of invitation you create.
