Taxis / Uber
There will be a special temporary taxi rank outside the Hungexpo Congress Centre (C) during Congress hours. A desk will be set up near the registration desks in the venue lobby where attendees can arrange pickups. The taxis will take cash (euro or HUF) or card. The fare between the Hungexpo and the city centre normally ranges between 10 and 20 euro but this depends on time of day, demand, etc. and is subject to change. Delegates may also wish to use online booking options such as Uber or Bolt.
Parking
Onsite parking within the Hungexpo is reserved for staff, crew and the LOC. However, the street ‘Albertirsai út’ nearby the venue usually has space for free parking (at delegate's own risk).
Insurance
It is the attendee’s own responsibility to arrange any personal travel insurance wanted or needed for entry into Hungary (and for any other countries that attendees stop at the way to Hungary).
Visas
ISUOG strongly advises that attendees only register for the World Congress once they are confident that they can legally enter Hungary/will be able to obtain a visa in time to do so. Refunds will not be provided to those who have not allowed enough time to have their visa approved, or have their visa rejected. It is the attendee’s own responsibility to check and fulfil any visa requirements for entry into Hungary (and for any other countries that attendees stop at on the way to Hungary). The official website of the Hungarian Consular Service contains information on all visa requirements for entry to Hungary. Furthermore, this website serves as an independent resource that may prove valuable for delegates who are uncertain about their visa requirements. Please note that ISUOG does not assume responsibility for the accuracy of the information provided, and does not claim liability if any information is found to be incorrect.
