2.1 BILATERAL MEETING ROOMS

There will be 16 bilateral meeting rooms with seats for 14+10 persons. As these rooms

will be in demand, bookings can be made for a maximum of 30 minutes.

Bilateral room reservations are to be made in advance and the rooms will be allocated on

a first come first served basis. The booking form (which will be available in November)

can either be submitted to a dedicated email address (which will also be available in

November) or submitted in person to the bilateral meeting room reservation desk, located

in the delegates working area, adjacent to the Ministerial Council Plenary Hall

On Thursday 6 and Friday 7 December, reservations for bilateral meeting rooms will be

taken only for meetings at Heads of Delegation level.

3. ACCREDITATION

3.1 ACCREDITATION OF DELEGATES

Accreditation on a self-registration basis will take place via a dedicated online registration

system which will be available from 12 midday GMT on 1 October 2012 at

https://delegation.osceministerial2012.ie/php/self/login.php . When you visit the weblink

for the first time, please click “create an account” to register your details. The delegate’s

email address will be the username and a password will be sent to the email address

provided. In addition, each delegation will be allocated a code. The codes will be

emailed separate to this logistic notice by the OSCE Secretariat.

If a delegation wishes to use group registration rather than the self-registration process

above, and have one person manage the registration for all participants attending from a

particular delegation, please contact the OSCE Taskforce by email at [email protected]

to request access for this facility.

A colour photograph of each delegate will be required to be submitted in .jpg format as

part of the online registration process. All personal data sent to the organizer of the event

will be treated in accordance with the highest security and national and international data

protection standards.

In addition, a Note Verbale from the Mission/Delegation in Vienna should be sent

separately to the OSCE Taskforce, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade no later than

6 November with a list of the delegates to ensure that all delegates who have applied for

accreditation have been granted authorization by their authorities to attend the Ministerial

Council. This Note should be sent by email to [email protected] or by fax to

+35314082165.

https://delegation.osceministerial2012.ie/php/self/login.php

mailto:[email protected]



Should there be any changes to the list of delegates, a further Note Verbale with an

updated list should be submitted to the OSCE Taskforce, Department of Foreign Affairs

and Trade. Accreditation will not be granted to persons who do not appear on the list of

members of the delegation in the Note Verbale.

3.2 ACCREDITATION OF HEADS OF DELEGATION

Heads of Delegation are also obliged to register using the online system. A pin will be

issued for each Head of Delegation and they are requested to wear the pin while in the

conference venue as well as other venues, such as the Heads of Delegation dinner on 6

December.

3.3 ACCREDITATION OF SECURITY PERSONNEL

If the Minister for Foreign Affairs/Head of Delegation is accompanied by national

security officer (s), the delegation is required to complete and submit an online

registration form for security personnel, accompanied by an electronic colour photograph

(in .jpg format) of each security officer. In addition, security officers should be listed in a

separate Note Verbale from the Mission/Delegation in Vienna to Protocol, Department of

Foreign Affairs and Trade. This note should be sent either by email to

[email protected] or by fax to +35314705410.

Delegations which include security personnel and which propose to apply for firearms

permits should note that the granting of permission to carry firearms is not automatic. The

relevant Ministry of Foreign Affairs wishing to apply for such permission should send an

application for approval via Note Verbale to Protocol, Department of Foreign Affairs and


Trade, no later than 6 November 2012. This information should also be submitted as part

relevant Ministry of Foreign Affairs through Protocol, Department of Foreign Affairs and

Trade no later than 6 November. An alternative frequency should be indicated in the

Note Verbale. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade will inform each Delegation

of the decision of the relevant Irish authorities in relation to use of frequencies. This note

should be sent either by email to [email protected] or by fax to +35314705410.

3.4 ACCREDITATION OF EMBASSY DRIVERS

The RDS will be a secure area. If the delegation is to be accompanied by an Embassy

driver, the delegation must (1) complete and submit an online accreditation form for the

driver and vehicle; (2) submit a colour photograph (in .jpg format) for the driver; (3)

submit the licence plate number of the vehicle; (4) send a separate Note Verbale from the

https://events.conferencepartners.ie/ei/getdemo.ei?id=102&s=_0T80UVBNT

https://events.conferencepartners.ie/ei/getdemo.ei?id=102&s=_0T80UVBNT&bulk=y

In accordance with OSCE standards, the Chairmanship will cover accommodation

expenses for the Heads of Delegation from 5-7 December (two nights). Heads of

Delegation are requested to make their hotel reservations via the online reservation

system.

Other hotel charges must be paid directly to the hotel by the delegates.

5. TRANSPORT

Heads of Delegation will be offered a car and driver, exclusively for use at the Ministerial

Council. This service will be available from the time of arrival (but not prior to 5

December) at Dublin Airport (www.dublinairport.com) until departure (no later than 8

December). The service is exclusively reserved for the use of the Head of Delegation and

can accommodate a maximum of one other delegation member.

Each delegation with more than two persons will have a mini-bus and driver. The mini-

bus is to be used exclusively for OSCE Ministerial Council purposes only, from the time

of the delegation’s arrival (not prior to 3 December) at Dublin Airport until departure (not

later than 8 December). The mini-bus will offer seven seats per delegation including

security personnel. The Chairmanship will not provide transportation for any extra

security personnel.

A shuttle service will be available between Dublin Airport, the hotels listed on the

reservation bureau website, the RDS and side events taking place elsewhere.

A waiting area will be established for all accredited drivers at the RDS.

6. SECURITY AT THE RDS

To gain entry to the RDS and while inside the building, a valid i.d. badge or pin must be

worn and visible at all times. In addition, delegates are requested to cooperate with

security check points and to follow the directions of An Garda Síochána (Irish Police

Force), security and protocol staff at all times. Security staff will ensure that visitors only

enter areas that they are permitted to enter.

7. VISAS

A visa waiver for diplomatic passport holders has been agreed for members of

waiver only applies to members of delegations (as confirmed by Note Verbale) who

are travelling on diplomatic passports. All members of delegations travelling on

service or ordinary passports from visa-required countries must apply for a visa

in advance of travel – please see Annex 5 for further information.

Nationals of the following countries travelling on service or ordinary passports

require a visa for entry to Ireland:

Herzegovina, Egypt, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Georgia, Jordan,

Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Mongolia, Montenegro, Morocco, Russian

Federation, Serbia, Tajikistan, Thailand, Turkey, Tunisia, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and

Visa-required delegates should note that Ireland is not in the Schengen zone so a

Schengen visa is not sufficient to enter Ireland.

fee will be waived, however, applicants will be responsible for courier charges where

place to process visa applications. If you are directed by the online system to forward

https://www.visas.inis.gov.ie/avats/OnlineHome.aspx
