Governors, other members of government delegations, observers, and special guests are asked to advise the Secretariat no later than 26 January 2001, that they plan to attend the meeting, by completing and returning the preregistration form provided for this purpose.

The registration form can be found on the annual meeting’s Website http://www.iadb.org/exr/am2001/pr/index.htm and may be filled out and sent electronically, using the security number that appears on the letter of invitation.

Upon arrival in Santiago, Governors and other members of government delegations, observers, and special guests should register at the Secretariat's registration desk located in the Entrance Hall of the Mapocho Station Cultural Center. The desk will operate on the following schedule:

Wednesday, 14 March 9:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Thursday, 15 March 8:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Friday, 16 March 8:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Saturday, 17 March 8:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Sunday, 18 March 8:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Monday, 19 March 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

At registration, each participant will be asked to present his or her passport so that an identification badge can be issued which will permit the participant to gain access to the meeting rooms. Invitations to the social events will be issued at this time as well. Chilean citizens must present their identity cards.

In keeping with the usual practice at international meetings of this kind, the identification badge prepared for each participant will include a photograph. Identification badges should be worn prominently at all times and will be essential to enable participants to gain access to the meeting rooms and other working areas, as well as to the social events.

To expedite registration procedures in Santiago, participants are requested, when sending back their preregistration forms, to include a recent photograph of themselves and of any guests who will be accompanying them to the meeting.
