Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Registration Fee include any meals?

Registration fees DO NOT include the cost of meals. Our Congress location offers a wealth of eating options to suit every budget and taste. The Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre (BCEC) houses a number of food and drink outlets, including Merivale and Olio Cafés. The Southbank precinct that lines the Brisbane River is situated just across the road from the BCEC. It offers many restaurants and “take away” options at all price levels. A number of nearby supermarkets provide opportunities to purchase snacks and ingredients for those who are staying in apartments with kitchen facilities.

What is the Cancellation Policy?

Registration fees will be refunded only when a written request, which includes the reason for cancellation, is received at congress@baptistworld.org before May 15, 2025. An administration fee of US$50 will apply to each cancellation. We regret that cancellations made after May 15, 2025, will result in loss of the entire registration fee unless the cancellation is due to a visa denial where the visa application was lodged prior to April 30, 2025.

To receive a refund, you must apply by June 30, 2025, by emailing your request to congress@baptistworld.org and including a copy of your denial letter, along with proof of your application having been made before April 30, 2025.
