4. Once your request is approved, you need to:

  • Make the IYLC Conference fee payment of 1140 Euro in full. Such payment shall NOT be deemed exempt from the IYLC Cancellation policy, in case the visa is denied, however it may be applied towards the attendance of another qualifying participant.
  • Make the Administrative fee payment of 125 Euro. This fee shall cover the expenses associated with the processing of the Invitation Letter, as well as express delivery of the Letter by DHL. The Administrative fee is non-refundable.

5. Once YLE obtains approval, an Authorized Letter of Invitation will be sent to your postal address by DHL Express Service.

Please Note:

The official acceptance to the International Youth Leadership Conference DOES NOT automatically entitle you to the Authorized Letter of Invitation, even if you make a conference fee payment (without prior approval of your request).

Youth Leadership Europe reserves a right to refuse your request for an Authorized Letter of Invitation without explanations. After the receipt of your Conference and Administrative fees, your name will be added to the waiting list, which is formed on the first come, first served basis. Once your turn comes, YLE will apply for an approval from the Czech Immigration Police.

Youth Leadership Europe does not provide any guarantees as to the amount of time necessary to receive an approval from the Czech Immigration Police. The process may take anywhere from 1 to 6 months. 

In case Youth Leadership Europe fails to obtain the approval on time for you to process your visa, your attendance will be deferred to the next conference with the your spot on the waiting list reserved.

No requests for Authorized Letter of Invitation will be considered after December 1st and June 15th respectively for winter and summer conferences.
