Visa Information

If you require a visa to enter the United States, please check with your local US embassy or consulate to obtain the necessary documents. Please allow enough time to process your visa. Please visit http://travel.state.gov/visa/visa_1750.html for information on the visa application process.

The organizers of TCT, sponsored by CRF, believe that international participation and contributions are critical to the continued success of this important educational symposium. We recognize that the application process for a travel visa has become more complicated and expensive. We are committed to assisting our international participants in this process.
