Important Note

Due to the increased security for travel to the United States, we strongly urge international visitors to apply for a U.S. travel Visa as soon as possible.

Four Important Steps To Obtaining A Visa

  1. Review the U.S. Department of State website for changes to the visa process that may affect you.

  2. Register for GRAPH EXPO. You will be able to request an Invitation Letter from GASC to assist you in obtaining a visa from the U.S. Consulate in your country during the registration process if you are a citizen of a country where a visa is required to enter the United States. (Note: There are NO refunds for Exhibits-Only registration regardless of visa approval.)

  3. Check your passport for the expiration date (passport must be valid for at least 6 months after planned entry to the U.S.)

  4. Apply early for your Visa.
