    • Full Payment of Conference Fee: A delegate is eligible for a credit voucher or transfer request only if they have paid the ISLD conference fee in full.

    • If the delegate has paid the “Discounted Registration Fee” for participating in any of the ISLD events, it is non-refundable but transferable.

    • If the event is postponed and you are unable to attend on the rescheduled dates, you may request a credit voucher for the full amount of your registration fee.

    • Use of Credit Vouchers: Credit vouchers issued under this policy are valid solely for future events organized by ISLD.

    • Partial Payment: If a delegate has only made a partial payment (i.e., the first installment of the total conference fee), they are ineligible for the credit voucher or transfer policy. In such cases, the entire amount of the first installment will be retained as a cancellation fee by ISLD.
