Introduction to the Buyer Badge-Must-read
Overseas buyers must have a Buyer Badge to enter the complex.
Please note that?the Buyer Badge can be used for multiple sessions. Please keep it properly.?If you already have a Buyer Badge, you can enter the complex directly, which is convenient and time-saving. If you need a replacement for a forgotten or lost Badge, your previous Badge will be invalidated automatically after the new one is issued. Please bring your current Badge when entering the venue.
To facilitate your registration process, for the 134th Canton Fair, we will set up overseas buyers’ registration points at 40 designated hotels in Guangzhou, and for the first time, we will offer registration services at Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport. The overseas buyers’ registration offices at Canton Fair Complex and Canton Fair Hong Kong Representative Office will continue to accept badge applications. Moreover, 24-hour badge services will be available for the first time at some of our registration points.
To ensure a seamless and convenient experience for you, we strongly recommend that overseas buyers?pre-register for Buyer Badges at alternative registration points rather than the complex.?It is advised that you have your Buyer Badge made at the airport, designated hotels, or Canton Fair Hong Kong Representative Office, or at least complete pre-registration online in advance. By following the advice above, you can avoid waiting in long queues for badge registration at Canton Fair Complex.
