International Travelers

CILRA provides this travel information as a courtesy to meeting attendees.  It is the responsibility of each attendee to ensure that she/he has the necessary documents, including those for entry into another country or re-entry into his/her own country.  It is recommended that you check with your institution's travel department for specific guidance in these matters.

 

International Visitors

All international visitors to the United States are required to have a valid passport; some attendees may need a visitor’s visa.  Please consult the embassy or consulate in your country well in advance of travel to ensure that the appropriate documentation is obtained.  We encourage all attendees planning to attend the CILRA and TALS Conference and in need of a Visa to apply as early as possible (at least 6 months in advance is recommended) and to pay careful attention to the U.S. State Department guidance in this matter as some requirements may have changed since you last traveled to the U.S.

Please be advised the CILRA does not have any influence on government decisions related to Visa applications.  We can neither advise you on what steps you should take nor speak to anyone on your behalf.  The only assistance the CILRA can provide is by way of a personalized letter of invitation to be included with your Visa Application. 

 


Letter of Invitation

If a visa is required for you to visit the United States, you will also need to carry a letter of invitation.  To request a letter of invitation, please contact Dr. Monika Stodolska at stodolsk@illinois.edu or Dr. Erwei Dong at dongerwei@hotmail.com.

Letters of invitation will be provided only to the individuals who register to attend the CILRA 2020 or TALS 2020 Conference.

中国参会人员赴美须知
请中国参会人员务必备好所有进入美国所需的旅行文件。前往美国的中国参会人员需持有有效护照和签证。请中国参会人员在出行前咨询美国驻华大使馆或领事馆,以确保获得签证的必需的文件。CIRLA组委会建议所有计划参加第四届中国休闲研究国际学会年会(CILRA)和美国休闲科学研究院2020年会(TALS)并且需要签证的参会人员尽早申请办理签证(建议至少于会议召开前六个月申请)。另外,由于某些出入境和签证要求与参会人员上一次前往美国时可能已发生变化,CIRLA组委会建议参会人员持续关注美国国务院在此方面的具体要求。
CIRLA组委会无法对美国政府关于签证申请的决定产生任何影响。CIRLA组委会无法明确告知参会人员具体的签证申请流程,也不能代表参会人员与任何方面进行交涉。在签证过程中,CIRLA组委会可以提供的帮助是为符合条件的参会人员提供可能所需的邀请函。
如果中国参会人员需要签证前往美国,则可能需要持有本次会议的正式邀请函。如果需要此邀请函,请联系Monika Stodolska博士 (stodolsk@illinois.edu) 或董二为博士(dongerwei@hotmail.com)。
 
请注意,邀请函仅提供给注册参加第四届中国休闲研究国际学会年会(CIRLA)或者美国休闲科学研究院2020年会(TALS)的参会人员。对于不满于上述条件的人员,恕CIRLA组委会不能提供会议邀请函
