- All attendees must have the immigration document (tourist card) provided to all international visitors upon arrival to Mexico. This document must be properly stamped by the immigration authorities and valid for at least the duration of the program. This immigration document must be provided to the hotel upon check-in.

Failure to present either one of these two documents will require full payment of Mexican taxes.

UPDATE: Officials Lift Travel Warnings Due to H1N1 Virus
Latest Update: July 15, 2009
"Meeting in Mexico: Tips, Advice from the Meeting Pros" 
Official warnings about travel to Mexico because of the H1N1 virus have been lifted. Cruise lines have returned to Mexican ports and even the World Health Organization (WHO) scheduled a two-day event in Cancun earlier this month.
The Appraisal Institute is closely monitoring daily developments regarding the recent Swine Flu outbreak. And, although the level of concern is very high, appropriate planning for this historic joint event with FECISVAL, the organization of Mexican appraisers, will continue.
"The safety of our members attending the International Valuation Congress is of paramount importance. As such, we encourage [attendees] to be well-informed and to exercise good and sound judgment, while placing current headlines in the proper perspective," said Appraisal Institute Jim Amorin, MAI, SRA.
