16.8. Rented Cars and Taxis
- A decision must be made as early as possible whether rented cars and taxis are allowed inside the premises of the Annual Meeting venue.The host country posts on its website the names and contact details of two or three reputable car rental companies from which participants may rent cars. Online forms should be available by October of the year before the Annual Meeting for renting these cars in advance.
- A decision must be made as early as possible whether rented cars and taxis are allowed inside the premises of the Annual Meeting venue. If not, a convenient drop-off and pick-up place is designated for these vehicles so that participants do not have to walk too far to reach the venue. If the distance is great, consideration may be given to providing shuttle buses or golf carts to transport participants to the main venue.
- If these vehicles are allowed inside the premises of the venue, consideration must be given on how to screen them and whether to provide these vehicles with stickers to give them access. If stickers are used, decisions must be made by December of the year before the Annual Meeting on how many stickers will be available, any limits per delegation, and how to distribute them. The issuance of stickers is handled by the host country, taking into consideration security factors.
