Online Payment

 

Payments for the registration fees for CEST2025 are processed through the eCommerce service provided by Alpha Bank Greece. Through Alpha Bank eCommerce we are accepting Credit card payments and bank transfers. Payment confirmation is sent to the e-mail address provided by the Customer soon after acceptance of the payment (by credit card) has been processed by the bank. A receipt or invoice will be issued after your payment and will be delivered to the e-mail address provided during the payment within one week.

 

Please bear in mind that online registration is mandatory for your payment to be confirmed and valid.

 

In case you require an “on - Credit invoice” you should click on “Invoice” while filling out the billing information. CEST does not have access to or withhold any credit card information given during the payment. The system used is a secure system handled entirely by Alpha Bank Greece.

Information on VAT 

Although some B2B and B2C transactions are allowed to be carried out VAT-Free in the EU, as a conference, we are not eligible for this type of exemption.

Where is it written? 

According to the European Commission's Taxation rules, B2B services in respect of admission to cultural, artistic, sporting, scientific, educational, entertainment and similar events will be taxed at the place where those events actually take place [Article 53 of the VAT Directive].
