Participation in International Conferences/Seminars
What is the procedure for availing exchange facility for participation in international conferences/seminars?
Applicant should submit to an authorised dealer a letter in duplicate from the sponsoring institution (from the applicant in case of self-employed professionals). The application should indicate the name, address, nationality and passport number, duration of visit, foreign exchange required and a certificate from the employer that the expenses are being borne by them. A brochure giving full particulars of the conference/seminar should also be submitted along with the application. If the exchange asked for does not exceed U.S. $ 25000, it will be released by authorized dealers regardless of the duration of the visit and the per diem rate of exchange.
