\n

Please visit the ITU User Account Management<\/a> website. Should you require support related to your ITU User Account, please contact servicedesk@itu.int<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

2. I cannot access my ITU User Account \/ I experience difficulties when trying to create my User Account. What should I do?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

Should you require support related to your ITU User Account, please contact servicedesk@itu.int<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

3. Will there be remote participation at PP-22?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

For the first time for a plenipotentiary conference, remote participation will be possible for registered participants to PP-22. Regardless of the option selected at registration, all registered participants will have the possibility to attend remotely by connecting to a virtual platform using their ITU User Account. Further information on remote participation can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

4. Is it mandatory for all participants to provide their passport details when filling out the PP-22 online registration form?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

Because a registration request, once approved by the corresponding focal point, allows for both on-site and remote participation, passport details are required for all participants, whether they intend to participate remotely or onsite. For technical reasons, it is not possible to submit a registration request without completing the passport detail section of the online registration form.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

5. Once I have registered, and regardless of the option I selected when I register, can I participate on-site and\/or remotely?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

On the online registration form, the option ‘participating remotely’ is only to give the secretariat an indication on the participants’ intentions. Even if you check the ‘participating remotely’ box, you can still participate physically. Inversely, if you did not check the box of participating remotely when you registered, you may still connect to the sessions offered with remote participation. Please note however that PP-22 is a physical meeting with extensive remote participation. Decisions will be taken in the Plenaries by delegates present in the room. A Member State which is unable to send a delegation to Bucharest to attend PP-22 will not be able to exercise its right to vote nor to sign the Final Acts of the Conference. In line with PP Resolution 167, the same applies for Member States whose delegates have registered to participate in the Conference only as remote participants (see more details under \u00a76 at https:\/\/pp.itu.int\/2022\/en\/participation\/credentials\/<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

6. How can I obtain visa support to travel to Bucharest, Romania? <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

The ITU secretariat cannot provide visa support for an event held outside Geneva, Switzerland. For visa support, please visit the Host Country website at https:\/\/bucharestpp22.gov.ro\/visas\/<\/a> or contact visaPP22@ancom.ro<\/a>. As the visa support service offered by the Host Country is for registered participants, please first register to the event and <\/span>obtain the required focal point approval prior to contacting the Host Country for visa support.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

7. Is there a deadline to register to PP-22? <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

There is no deadline to register. However, delegates who must apply for visas <\/a>to travel to Bucharest, Romania are advised to register (and obtain focal point approval) as early as possible to give enough time for visa request processing. Please also note that accommodation <\/a>availability may also be reduced as the conference date approaches.<\/p>\n<\/div>
