Registration

General information

Registration for the Europlanet Science Congress 2020 is by payment of the appropriate registration fee. The paid registration grants access to all restricted scientific content and allows participating in the thread-based discussion forums of the virtual meeting. Please note that the online registration must be processed with the Copernicus Office user ID which will later be used for the online participation.

Online registration

Online registration will be possible from 10 July 2020. The registration payment can be made by bank transfer or credit card (Mastercard, VISA, JCB or American Express) whereas bank transfer registrations will only be possible by 31 August 2020. As of 01 September 2020, the payment of your registration will only be possible by credit card. Unpaid registrations will not grant access to the restricted content area of the virtual meeting.

Please note that registrations for virtual participation can only be billed to institutional invoice addresses due to taxation reasons. The person registering online confirms that they are entitled to request an invoice to be issued on behalf of their employer (institute or company). If you want to participate as a private individual (i.e. no institutional invoice can be issued), please contact the Europlanet Society at contact@europlanet-society.org.
