Applying for a visa

To prepare for your trip to ADLM 2025 in Chicago, IL, USA, we encourage you to find out as early as possible if you need a Visa.

Citizens of specific countries can visit the U.S. without a Visa through the Visa Waiver Program. If you do require a Visa, it is advisable to apply at least 5 months prior to your intended travel date.

Trade Event Partnership Program (TEPP)

Due to ongoing internal capacity constraints, the U.S. Department of Commerce is no longer able to host the Trade Event Partnership Program at ADLM 2025. That said, ADLM is offering exhibiting companies the chance to connect with international buyers through the Global Trade Directory—a powerful resource designed to support your export goals during and after the expo.
