Miscellaneous Information

Checks
Personal or company checks cannot be accepted at the registration desk or in shops in Alicante. Traveller's checks are accepted by major banks.

Credit Cards
Credit cards are accepted in almost all shops, restaurants, taxis etc.  Often, they will ask for a passport as well.

 

Bank/Debit Cards

Generally, your debit card will work in the ATM machines in Spain.  You will most likely save significantly (5-7 %) in the exchange by taking money out from a machine rather than brining cash due to commission fees at exchange booths.  However, check with your bank before traveling as to any maximum amount of money you are allowed to take out per day. 

 

Currency
The official  currency is the Euro.  

Insurance
The congress organizers cannot accept any liability for personal injuries sustained, or for loss or damage to property belonging to congress participants (or their accompanying persons), either during, or as a result of, the congress.  Registration fees do not include insurance. We strongly recommended that at the time you register for the congress and book your travel you also check the validity of your own insurance.

Internet
Computer service for e-mail etc will be available at the conference site.

Language

The official conference language is English. 

 

Mixing English and Spanish is a relatively new trend:
