Attention is drawn to the strict provisions in force regarding entry into Switzerland, which refuses entry to those not having the required visa. Participants requiring an entry visa must obtain this from the Swiss consulate or diplomatic mission responsible for the necessary arrangements in their country of residence. Those participants wishing, upon arrival in Geneva, to cross the border into France, must obtain visas in the country of residence before departure, as they are not obtainable in Geneva. Tickets must be purchased and validated before entering buses. There are taxi ranks in almost all main squares in Geneva and outside the Palais des Nations.
