HOW CAN I GET AN INVITATION LETTER FOR MY VISA APPLICATION?

You may request an invitation letter if one is required for your Visa application. Before an invitation letter can be issued, you must be registered for the Championships and have your registration accepted by your Member country (i.e., listed as ”accepted” on the registration lists). Once both of these requirements are met, you can request an invitation letter by sending an email to contact@2024wmac.com. Be sure to include the following information in your request:

  • Name of the athlete, accompanying person or team manager
  • Passport number or national ID number
  • Country
  • Email address

WHAT SHOULD I ENTER IN THE FIELDS FOR PREVIOUS RESULTS WHEN REGISTERING?

Athletes who don't have a time or mark can put "NT" (for "no time") or "NM" (for "no mark"). There's a clickable button marked with "?" next to the time/mark input fields which will show examples of the formats for times/marks, including what to put for no time and no mark.

Competition

IN WHICH VENUE WILL MY EVENT TAKE PLACE?

The final timetable, containing information about starting times and competition venues, will be finalized and published after the registration deadline on Tuesday 4 June. Several factors come into play and the number of participants registering for each event is crucial in determining how the competition schedule can be optimized and aligned with the capacity of the venues. Simply put, we aim to construct the best and most efficient program possible for the athletes and to do so, we need to await registration numbers and other pertinent information. We fully understand that this is critical information for everyone, thank you for your patience.
