Registrations
Registrations can be made through our website at www.amcham.nl or by email, facsimile or regular mail service. Registering by any of these methods informs AmCham Netherlands of your wish to attend the event in question. Your place is not confirmed at this stage. For the majority of the events ‘first come, first served’ applies and in rare cases Patron and/or Sustaining members will enjoy priority on registration. This all will be clearly stated in the invitation if applicable.
If you wish to register more than one person for an event you can so at the same time by making “guest” registration(s). The “guest” may be either another employee of your company or any other person you would like to attend the event with you. Please note that “guests” will be charged to the member who registered them and will be featured on the member’s invoice. The member is responsible for his guest(s) and his guest’s conduct at all times.
Confirmation
AmCham Netherlands will confirm all registrations in writing – normal registration through regular mail service and reservations made at the last minute via email.
