Dear All,
Please see the response from the Meeting Team responsible for Hotel Support to
the issue that Heather raised:
The email appears to be a generated standard email that is sent to funded
travelers and not one unique to ICANN Hyderabad. The process to provide hotel
confirmations would usually take as long, but we have taken great measures to
ensure hotel confirmations for Hyderabad will be provided in a timely manner.
The goal is to have them all distributed by the end of the month (August 31).
Thank you and we will keep you informed.
Kind regards,
Glen

Hi,
Not exactly. Both reservations are usually from the same hotel. Sometimes, the
earlier one for visa purposes is just a letter from the hotel with a long list
of ICANN-funded travelers, letting the embassy know these folks (including the
applicant) are staying there.
Thanks.

So they are asking us to lie in our visa application about where we will be
staying? That is going to go down well if caught...

Hi Heather,
In my experience, Constituency Travel provides hotel reservations solely for
the purpose of visa acquisition at a time early enough to apply for one.
At a later time, they provide the actual confirmed reservation details for the
hotel in which we should be staying.
It works. At least I've never had a problem because of this. You may want to
confirm this with CT yourself.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Colleagues,
Following up on Phil's point below about timely notification of hotel, I noted
with some alarm the following in the standard email we all received from ICANN
travel this week (see highlighted bit below). What can we do about this? The
Council table will be pretty empty if this is indeed what will happen.
Best wishes,
Heather

That looks like a significant impediment to getting the required visa.
I’ll be making my own flight arrangements so no issue there.
But we all need ICANN Travel to tell us by the end of this month what hotel
Councilors will be placed in. We simply can’t wait until the week or two before
the meeting starts if we are to secure the required visa.

Considering both hotel and flight information is required for the Conference
Visa, and Constituency Travel usually defines the hotel just a week before the
conference, this edition will likely be a lot of fun for councillors relying on
ICANN funding.

Council Colleagues -
Please note the announcement & blog post below. In most cases, attendees will
need a “Conference Visa” for ICANN57 Hyderabad, and an “eTourist" Visa may not
be accepted for entry to India. ICANN has also provided a link to request an
Invitation Letter.
Thanks—

• Author: Nick Tomasso | Vice President, Meetings
Further to my
blog<https://www.icann.org/news/blog/icann57-hyderabad-what-you-need-to-know>
on 25 July 2016, I would like to share details on visa applications to assist
all who are attending ICANN57 Annual General Meeting in Hyderabad with your
travel planning.
We have worked extensively with the India government to ensure a clear and
smooth process for all Indian visa applications. They have also assured us that
all ICANN57 visa applications will be treated as priority.
All delegates requiring visas to India should visit
here<http://www.mea.gov.in/indian-missions-abroad.htm> to find the nearest
India diplomatic mission to apply for your visa. You must apply for a
Conference Visa. Please refer to the
guide<https://meetings.icann.org/en/hyderabad57/visa-application-guide-india>
we have put together for reference. Apply early as the process could take up to
two weeks. You will also need invitation
letters<https://invitationletters.icann.org/> from ICANN and the local host,
which may take another two weeks to generate.
Do take note that the e-Tourist Visa will not be applicable for our ICANN
meeting. Any traveler trying to enter India with the e-Tourist Visa may be
denied entry. If you have an existing valid Business Visa, you need not apply
for the Conference Visa.
We have set up a dedicated email
(icann57visasupport@xxxxxxxxx)<mailto:icann57visasupport@xxxxxxxxx%29> that you
can contact should you need any further clarification about the visa.
Remember to
register<https://registration.icann.org/register.php?id=Hyderabad57> for
ICANN57 and check our meeting site<https://meetings.icann.org/en/hyderabad57>
for regular updates. Lastly, don't forget to attend the webinar on 7 September
2016 (1500 UTC) where we will share more information on ICANN57, logistics,
accommodations and travel. Look out for our announcement and join us then.
