Registration

To register someone else or several people, please use the group registration link below and follow these instructions: 

• Create an ESCMID account using your email address and your contact information.
• The group registration tool will walk you through the process of 3 steps:
  • Purchase and pay tickets
  • Add the names once you’re ready
  • Send confirmations to your group members asking them to reconfirm their accounts
• You can purchase no-name tickets (please refer to the early and standard fee registration deadlines) and assign the names by 25 March 2026 the latest, or you can immediately purchase named tickets.
• Payments for group registrations can be made either by credit card (Visa, MasterCard or American Express) or by bank transfer (only until 25 March 2026).
• For bank transfer, details will be provided by email once the group registration is completed. Please ensure that the invoice number is stated on the transaction draft. Bank charges are the responsibility of the payer and should be paid in addition to the registration fees.
• You can mention your PO number as reference and add a separate invoice address – keep in mind that a handling fee of 30 EUR (€) will be charged if you request a change of your invoice address after having processed the registration.
• As soon as your delegates are added to your group, you can send them a confirmation email which also asks them to connect their ESCMID account to the registration you purchased for them. This important step is needed to grant them online access as well as access to the app and their certificate.

To register your group, you need the following information: 

• Registration category including the necessary proofs to be uploaded 
• Information about current ESCMID membership status if you register ESCMID members 
• The individual email addresses for each delegate 
• Full name 
• Company

• Country 
• Prescriber information (stating if the delegate you register is qualified to prescribe medication in their own country) 
• You need to accept all terms and conditions on behalf of your delegates
