International Attendees

If you're heading to Boston from outside the United States, it will benefit you to start planning ahead. Arranging your visit early will help you make sure that you have everything you need to have a successful visit to the United States.

Visa Information

With recent changes in the immigration laws, the U.S. State Department advises that anyone who applies for a temporary visa to enter the U.S. should plan on the process taking significantly longer than it has in the past. With this in mind, we strongly urge you to review the U.S. Department of State document on how to obtain your visa. Please contact International@ons.org if you require a letter of registration confirmation for your consulate.
