All registered attendees are required to

1) go through security screening and

2) check in for the Congress

Our host, WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization), requires all attendees to go through security screening before being admitted to the venue.

We strongly recommend, where possible, that attendees come to the venue the afternoon before Congress begins in order to check in and collect their name badge. Delegates who have already collected their badge and Congress material will be able to access the venue quickly on the first day of Congress.

Those who cannot collect their badge and check in the day before Congress begins, please allow enough time for security screening and for registering with FIT on that first day.

Please note that there is no on-site registration. You must register online for the World Congress before 28 August 2025.

Please be aware of the following security measures:

All visitors must pass through a security check upon entry. This includes baggage screening and personal identification verification.

Registered delegates will receive a security badge upon their first arrival. This badge must be visibly worn at all times within the premises.

Please ensure you have the following items with you:

• A valid ID or passport
  
• Your registration confirmation email (printed or digital)
  
• Any necessary documents, such as proof of payment 
  

Prohibited items: Weapons, sharp objects, and other restricted items are strictly forbidden.
