Visa Information

Participants requiring a visa for entry to Sweden are strongly advised to make their application in their home country at least two months before the intended date of travel. Please contact your nearest Swedish Embassy or Consulate or your travel agency for more information. Those who do not fly directly to Sweden should note that you may need a transit visa for some countries in order to continue your travel to Sweden.


If a letter of invitation is needed for the visa application, Congrex Sweden AB can send this upon request after you have registered for the World Water Week and the payment for the registration fee and hotel deposit has been received (Click here for Congrex Sweden AB contact).

The letter of invitation does not represent a commitment on the part of the Organisers to provide financial support. The deadline to request an invitation letter for use in seeking a visa is August 2, 2010. For a list of Embassies and Consulates, please visit the website: http://www.sweden.gov.se/sb/d/5616.
