	If you begin the registration process and do not complete it, you
	will be sent an email with information on how to pay for your
	registration. Please note that you will receive this email two or
	more hours after you begin the process as it is not immediately
	sent. If you do not pay your registration before the cutoff dates
	listed above your registration will be deleted and you will be
	required to re-enter your data.

	If you register and find that you can no longer attend the meeting,
	you can request a refund. Cutoff for registration refunds is UTC
	23:59 2018-10-29 (Monday). Refunds are subject to a 10% (ten
	percent) processing fee. The 10% penalty is waived in the event that
	cancellation is due to your inability to obtain a visa to attend the
	meeting. 

2. Visas & Letters of Invitation:

	Letters of Invitation (LOIs) are available through the registration
	system. Once you register/pay for IETF 103 you may request a
	letter of invitation through a link in your confirmation email 
	or the self-service portal.

	As a courtesy to those who’ve attended an IETF meeting in the past,
	we are permitting prior attendees to obtain an LOI before
	registering for the meeting. If you have previously attended a
	meeting and want to get an early start on the visa process, without
	registering for IETF 103, you may request a LOI here:
	https://www.ietf.org/registration/letterofinvite/singleletter.py

	You will be required to provide an email address used for a
	prior meeting that you attended. The LOI will be sent to that
	email address.
