Cancellations and Refunds
Any changes to registration are subject to a $100 admin fee, this includes cancellations/refunds, name changes, or registration type changes.
Cancellation and refund requests must be emailed to the IAVM Meetings Department at meetings@iavm.org. Fees are calculated based on the full cost of registration and the date the cancellation request is submitted.
If a registrant is unable to attend an event for any reason, someone else from their venue/company may attend in their place with written notice up to 2 weeks before the event start date. If a cancellation is necessary, the following refund deadlines apply:
- Cancellation request submitted on or before April 6, 2026: full refund minus $100 admin fee
- Cancellation request submitted between April 7 –May 6, 2026: 50% refund minus $100 admin fee
- Cancellation request submitted between May 8 – May 21, 2026: 25% refund minus $100 admin fee
- Cancellation request submitted on May 22, 2026 or later: No refund
The cancellation deadlines apply to PAID, UNPAID, and partially paid registrations. Invoiced no-shows will be billed as cancellations accordingly. Late requests for refunds due to special circumstances will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Rollover Policy
There is no rollover option. If a registrant is unable to attend, and the venue is not able to send another attendee, registration fees will be refunded based on the above cancellation deadlines.
