International visitors

America's Beauty Show 2027 Chicago attracts brands, distributors and professionals from around the world. If you are travelling from outside the United States, start planning early.

• Check your entry requirements. Many visitors from Visa Waiver Program countries can travel with an approved ESTA. Everyone else needs a visitor visa, which usually includes an interview at a US embassy or consulate. The US Department of State visitor visa pages explain what applies to you.
• Allow plenty of time. Interview waiting times for US visas can be long in some countries, so apply as early as you can.
• Ask the organiser for an invitation letter. If you need a visa, a letter from Cosmetologists Chicago confirming your registration can support your application. Contact them through their official website.
• Book only through the official website. Register and buy tickets through the organiser directly, so you know your booking is genuine.

Entry rules can change, so always check the official government website before you travel.
