If a Visa is Required

Apply for a visitor / tourist visa. NMUN conferences do not constitute academic study (i.e. it's not the equivalent of a semester of study at a university). To assist with your visa application, our partners may be able to provide a letter confirming that you are registered for the conference. If they decide to provide a letter it does not guarantee that you will be granted a visa.

How to Request a Letter
  1. Register your school for the conference and pay the registration fee. A letter will not be issued until the registration fee has been paid, you have confirmed your delegate numbers online, and your visa appointment is scheduled.
  2. The faculty advisor or head delegate should submit our NMUN Visa Information Form well in advance of your group’s visa interview.
    • It must include data for everyone from your delegation who needs a visa. Include everything requested on the form.
    • Only one letter per school will be issued listing all applicants. You can make copies for each person to include with their individual visa applications.
  3. Failure to secure your visas before the payment deadline will result in your delegation being withdrawn from the conference.
