Cancellation & Refund Policy

Dear participants,

Thank you for your interest in 17th Global Summit of Tamil Entrepreneurs & Professionals, scheduled for 12-14 November 2026 at Millennium Plaza Downtown Hotel, Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Large international events involve advance commitments for venues, speakers, delegate services, hospitality, technology, logistics, and support teams. Please read this policy carefully before completing your registration.

1. Cancellation Request Method

All cancellation and refund requests must be submitted in writing by email to info@tamilrise.org. The request should include:

• Registered participant name.
• Email address and phone number used for registration.
• Registration package or invoice reference, if available.
• Reason for cancellation.
• Payment proof or transaction reference, if requested by the secretariat.

Phone calls or messages may be used for clarification, but a written email request is required for refund processing.

2. Full Refund Window

Participants may be eligible for a refund, minus processing fees and applicable deductions, if the written request is received on or before 13 October 2026.

This date is 30 days before the 17th Global Summit start date of 12 November 2026.

3. No Refund After Deadline

Cancellation or refund requests received after 13 October 2026 will not be accommodated because venue, hospitality, delegate material, service, and operational commitments are finalized close to the event.

4. Processing Fees and Deductions

Approved refunds may be subject to:

• Payment gateway or bank charges.
• Currency conversion or transfer charges.
• GST, tax, or statutory deductions where applicable.
• Administrative or processing fees communicated by the secretariat.
• Any non-recoverable cost already committed specifically for the participant.

The final refundable amount will be confirmed after review.

5. Refund Processing Timeline

Approved refunds will be processed within 30 days from the date of approval. Actual credit timelines may vary depending on banks, payment gateways, international transfers, or payment method.

Refunds will normally be made to the original payment method or to a verified bank account. Cash refunds are not issued.

6. Registration Substitution

If you cannot attend, you may request substitution of another eligible delegate instead of cancellation. Substitution is not guaranteed and must be approved in writing by The RISE secretariat. Additional documentation, package difference, tax, or administrative charges may apply.

7. Event Changes or Postponement

The RISE may update the event schedule, format, speakers, venue arrangements, or delegate services due to operational, legal, safety, travel, government, or force majeure reasons.

If the event is postponed, registrations may be carried forward to the revised date unless The RISE announces a specific refund process. If the event is cancelled by the organizer, refund or credit options will be communicated separately.

8. Travel, Visa, and Accommodation Costs

The RISE is not responsible for personal travel, visa, insurance, accommodation, exchange-rate loss, or other third-party costs incurred by participants. Delegates are encouraged to book refundable travel and accommodation where possible and to confirm visa requirements before travel.
