PAYMENTS & REFUNDS
Please note that customers in most countries DO NOT need to have a PayPal account to make a payment through PayPal.
We accept most internationally-issued cards and some local payment methods too. Local payment options may differ in different countries depending on available local payment methods and local regulations.
If you already have a PayPal account then you can use this to login and pay directly from your PayPal balance. If not, we suggest setting up a PayPal account in advance – you can either do a direct bank transfer to your PayPal account before buying the Access Passes OR you can link your bank account to the PayPal account to do an instant transfer upon purchase.
Yes, all transactions are conducted within in a highly secure payment environment which is handled by our payment gateway provider, PayPal.
If you have bought a single ticket to an event session (either Production/Performance or Professional Exchange Session) and it has been, after you have acquired it, rescheduled to a date, time, or venue other than that stipulated on the ticket (or advertised on the website or mobile application when you acquired it) you may claim a refund of the ticket price from us at any time before the scheduled performance. Refunds may exclude any costs which we have incurred by selling the ticket to you. In respect of rescheduled event sessions, a refund may be claimed by contacting tickets@assitejonline.org before the rescheduled event session.
If an event session has been rescheduled but your ticket was purchased through an Access Pass (i.e. reserving your ticket did not incur any extra cost because your ticket was complimentary through the usage of your Access Pass), then no refunds are available.
If you have bought a single ticket to an event session (either Production/Performance or Professional Exchange Session) and it has been cancelled, you may claim a refund of the ticket price up to 21 days after the originally scheduled event session. Refunds may exclude any costs which we have incurred by selling the ticket to you. In respect of cancelled event sessions, a refund may be claimed by contacting tickets@assitejonline.org within 21 days of the date for which the event session was originally scheduled.
If an event session has been cancelled but your ticket was purchased through an Access Pass (i.e. reserving your ticket did not incur any extra cost because your ticket was complimentary through the usage of your Access Pass), then no refunds are available.
We regret that no refunds on tickets can be made for late arrivals. Tickets are not refundable unless the event is cancelled or rescheduled.
We regret that no refunds on Access Passes or Tickets can be made if you can no longer attend. Tickets and Access Passes are not refundable unless the event is cancelled or rescheduled.
Refunds normally take between 4-14 working days to reflect on your statement, depending on your payment method. You may check the progress of your refund with PayPal.
Unfortunately, Access Passes can only be purchased online – if you need any help with this, then please contact the ASSITEJ International Secretariat or email us at help@assitejonline.org.
There are several reasons why a card may be rejected. Some of the most common reasons include:
1. Insufficient funds: If you don’t have enough available funds to cover the purchase, the transaction may be declined.
2. Suspicious activity: Banks have fraud detection systems in place that may flag certain transactions as potentially fraudulent. If this happens, the transaction may be declined until the bank can verify that the purchase is legitimate.
3. Incorrect information: If you entered the wrong credit card number, expiration date, or CVV code, the transaction may be declined.
4. Card expiration: If your card has expired, the transaction will be declined.
5. Daily or Monthly limit reached: If you have reached your card limit, the transaction may be declined.
6. Foreign transaction: Sometimes your card security stops international transactions from being approved, especially when making an online purchase.
If your card has been rejected, you should contact your bank to find out the specific reason for the decline. They will be able to provide you with more information and help you resolve the issue.

SUBMISSION OF TRAVEL INFORMATION
The ASSITEJ World Congress and Performing Arts Festival for Children & Young People is a cultural event and international visitors would normally need a specialised cultural visa from a Cuban Embassy for immigration clearance.
HOWEVER, to reduce costs and administrative processes, delegates may instead use a standard (Green) Tourist Card in combination with their delegate Access Pass by providing their legal names, date of entry and departure from Cuba, flight numbers, place of accommodation, and a copy of their passport. This information will be collected by ASSITEJ International and subsequently shared with the Cuban authorities to allow participants to attend the Congress with ease.
Due to special regulations that exist for the transit of passengers between the USA and Cuba, a specific Card/Visa is required (Pink) instead of the standard (Green) one. If you are travelling to Cuba through or from the United States, you must apply for a pink Card/Visa.
Check Travel Requirements:
We recommend using online services like the IATA Travel Centre or Sherpa to check travel requirements.
Exemptions:
Some countries do not need a Tourist Card to enter Cuba. Participants from these countries can enter the country without a Tourist Card but still need to register through the event website to attend the event.
Within 7 days of purchasing an Access Pass, you will receive an email from an online service called DocuSign which is GDPR compliant. Here, you will be asked to provide your passport and travel information that is needed for immigration purposes.
If you do not receive this email, please contact us at tickets@assitejonline.org
Unfortunately, the Adobe Sign system is set up to send automatic reminders every 2 days and it is not possible for us to deactivate this.
ASSITEJ International is using Adobe Sign to collect this information which is compliant with all major data protection laws. You can read about their safety and compliance here:

Until we send this data to our colleagues in Cuba, only ASSITEJ International employees will have access to this data. They access this using an account password AND EITHER a biometric login OR a standalone authorisation app. Wherever the data will be downloaded, it will remain locally on only 1 computer, which is backed up to an encrypted cloud, under both user account and document password protection (without shared / team access). It will then be sent to our colleagues in Cuba via an encrypted transfer and will retain document password protection.
International visitors and participants of the ASSITEJ World Congress and Performing Arts Festival for Children & Young People will need a Tourist Visa/Tourist Card unless they are from an exempt country.
This will usually be checked before boarding your flight to Cuba, and you may be denied boarding if you do not have it.
For most participants, this is a simple procedure done either at the Cuban consulate in your country of residence, by your airline, a travel agency, or by using online visa services.
If you enter Cuba from the United States of America, or if you transit through an airport in the USA, you will need a different type of Tourist Card that is differently priced.
It is not possible to get a Cuban tourist card in Australia and some other countries before flying. They are available at particular airports that have connecting flights, and we recommend checking this with your travel agent or airline.
Cuban Immigration authorities will not stamp your passport to show you have entered Cuba – they will only stamp your Tourist Visa / Tourist Card which is a piece of paper kept separate from your passport.
You do not need to collect the passports and travel information of your members when you buy Access Passes for a group.
After you have bought the Access Passes, you will distribute the codes and ask your friends / colleagues to redeem / activate their passes according to the instructions above.
Each delegate will receive an email from an online service called DocuSign which is GDPR compliant. Here, they will provide their passport and travel information that is needed for immigration purposes.

However, if you do not speak both languages, PLEASE COPY the English text you have added into the Spanish field and format it in BOLD for our team to translate it on your behalf.
You will see a ‘Duration’ listed in minutes – this may be less than you originally requested in your application, as we have had to reduce the length of some sessions to accommodate the schedule. Please note that you cannot directly edit the duration that has been allocated to you – but please let us know if this is unsuitable for any reason.
Our team will check everything over and get back to you if there are any further questions. If not, we will make your event information live on the event website as soon as it is ready (we will release the event information to the public on a first-ready-first-served basis).
If you notice any mistakes on the public site, or need to make any further changes, please email us at:

VENUE INFO FOR CONTRIBUTORS
We are still finalising the venue and timeslot allocations. You may have already seen a provisional date/time/venue listed under the ‘Performances’ tab. However, this is NOT yet confirmed, and is very likely to change. You will receive a notification when your timeslot is ready to view – you will be able to respond to us at that stage if the timeslot allocated to you is unsuitable for any reason.
For Professional Exchange Programme sessions, the local producer of your session will contact you from around 1st May. They will help clarify what the venue can provide and respond to other practical questions. Due to limited technical facilities in the local venues, we recommend keeping the technical requirements of your session as simple as possible. We will in most cases, not be able to provide a projector for your session.
For Productions / Performances, the technical requirements of your production (as well as accommodation needs) is being taken care of by Analais, who is the producer of the festival and will be in touch with the local venues. Check your email for Analais’ WhatsApp contact.
Due to limited internet availability, Professional Exchange Programme sessions will not be live-streamed from Cuba. Some sessions will be recorded with the recordings being made available to online delegates at a later stage. Someone from the ASSITEJ team will be in touch at the start of May if we plan to record your event.
Due to limited internet availability, it is not recommended to have a presenter / panellist / speaker / other contributor participate virtually. If their participation is vital, we recommend that they pre-record some audio files which may be played on your own speakers / laptops. Due to limited technical facilities in the local venues, we will in most cases, not be able to provide a projector for your session.
You are welcome to present in any language you feel most comfortable in. Many delegates will be Spanish and/or English speakers and these will be the predominant languages used across the event. We encourage contributors to translate their session wherever they can. This may be in any format (e.g. a colleague offering simultaneous interpretation, pre-printed translated scripts, or a splitting of workshop groups between different language groups). Regrettably, there are limited local resources available for translation and so we recommend that this is considered by the presenting individual / organisation themselves wherever possible.
Please contact us via email at: contributors@assitejonline.org
