How to apply for a Visa
If you require a visa letter to travel to United States for the OpenStack Summit please fill out this form.
Before submitting a request, please check here if your country is a part of the Visa Waiver Program. The Visa Waiver Program (VWP) allows citizens of participating countries to travel to the United States without a visa for stays of 90 days or less, when they meet all necessary requirements. You can learn more about the Visa Waiver Program here. If you travel on a passport issued by a country NOT on this list, you will require a Visitor Visa to travel to the United States.
If you are unsure whether you require a visa or not, please visit this page and enter the country that issued your passport and the reason for your trip, and it will tell you what visa to apply for if a visa is required for your travel.
Visa Processing Time
As a general planning guideline, if a visa is needed, a foreign traveler should apply for his or her visa as soon as possible, preferably no later than 60 days before the travel date. Processing time for visas vary depending on the office and the time of year. You are encouraged to apply early and to submit complete applications including all supporting documents. For your information, general processing times at the various visa offices are available at the following link: http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/general/wait-times.html/. For more accurate processing times, please consult the website for the visa office responsible for processing their application.

Requests for invitation letters must be received before April 17, 2017. We will send your visa letter to the email you provide on this form. No hard copies will be sent. Visa invitation letters will be issued within 5 business days after the request has been submitted.
Revere would not recognize it. Boston is known for its bricks and brownstones, but the city is starting to take on a glossier, more modern sheen.
