Passport Information
With the ASBMR 2024 Annual Meeting taking place outside the United States this year, the ASBMR would like to remind all U.S. citizens that they are required to have a valid U.S. Department of State-issued passport to enter Canada.
To ensure that foreign nationals residing in the United States do not encounter difficulties re-entering the United States from Canada after attending the meeting in October, we recommend that you consult the U.S. State Department website or an immigration attorney to verify the current U.S. re-entry requirements for your specific visa (i.e., H-1, J, F, etc.). Depending on your country of origin, some individuals may also need to obtain a visa to enter Canada. Individuals should consult their home country's foreign office for specific information regarding requirements for entry into Canada. We do not anticipate most will experience difficulty traveling between the U.S. and Canada. However, each individual's situation is unique and may require additional vigilance.
Visa Information
ASBMR encourages all attendees to enquire about your ability to enter Canada. If you need a Visa to attend the ASBMR 2024 Annual Meeting in Toronto, ON, Canada, ASBMR encourages you to apply as soon as possible.
