Participants who require a visa to enter Slovenia also need to provide a  letter of guarantee. A letter can be provided by completing this form and sending it to the conference secretariat  either by emial to registration@cd-cc.si or by fax it to +386-1-24-17-296 . This form must be sent at least two months before arrival  in Slovenia.
