Registration cancellations received up to Friday 30 January 2026 will receive a full refund, less a $300.00 AUD administration fee. No refunds will be given for cancellations received after Friday 30 January 2026 – this includes cancellation of any paid workshops/events such as the Gala Dinner.
As an alternative to cancellation, registrations may be transferred to another person (for the same registration category) before Friday 30 January 2026 without receiving any extra cost penalty.
Credit card surcharges associated with your registration will not be refunded in the case of cancellation.
In the instance that the 2026 ASCPD Symposium physical event cannot proceed or a registered delegate can not attend due to unforeseen circumstances, all registrations will be transferred to on demand registrations. No administration fee will apply in such a case, and you will be refunded the difference in registration fees. You will be allocated the equivalent on demand registration based on the date you registered.
Please carefully select the correct payment type noting if you are using a local Australian credit card or an International non-Australian credit card.
International credit cards attract a higher fee from the payment gateway, as such a higher surcharge is required. If the wrong payment type is selected you will be contacted to rectify the fees charged.
Please note the following credit card surcharges apply:
- Mastercard / VISA – 1.75%
- AMEX – 2.25%
- International cards – 4%
