1. The conference will be held online on Zoom, and it is up to the delegate to ensure they have proper connectivity and have installed Zoom. Delegates must also comply with our Zoom name designation, which would be (Country - Committee). For example, (Indonesia - UNODC). Additionally, turning cameras on is mandatory. The chair will consider this for participation points. Furthermore, delegates are encouraged to change their backgrounds to their respective nation's flags.

2. After submitting the binding form, delegates understand that they MUST attend the conference. Failure to do so can affect participation in future conferences hosted by SDMUN and other partner conferences.

3. After registration, the organizer will send a confirmation of registration and other necessary information. This letter is usually accompanied by an invoice request.

4. The payment must be done within 7 days after registration, but not less than 7 days before the conference.

5. The organizer reserves the right to cancel the event for organizational reasons, such as - but not limited to - insufficient number of participants or as a result of force majeure. If the event is canceled by the organizer, the full participant fee will be refunded. Further liability or damage claims are excluded.

6. It is mandatory that delegates attend the conference in Western Business attire to maintain a sense of formality.
