Italian Regulations – AIFA Registration

Every pharmaceutical company (not applicable for medical device producers) that wishes to join ESPID 2026 as a sponsor/exhibitor or a group of participants, must present a request of participation at the Italian Ministry of Health Agency (AIFA).

The request is obligatory for all companies and should be completed by 23 April 2026 (no later than 70 days prior to the Meeting).

In order to apply, the company needs to obtain a SIS code. Should the company not have one, the process of getting the code takes additional 25-30 days. Please take this into consideration when starting your application process.

This request of participation process will take place through a local agency acting as provider and point of coordination for every pharmaceutical company taking part in the Meeting.

PLEASE NOTE: Kenes International is not involved in this procedure. It is the pharmaceutical companies’ sole responsibility to adhere to the above regulations directly via the local agent.
