    Visa & entry documents

    Check the latest visa requirements and entry guidelines before travelling.

    Visa required
    ATA Carnet: check with organiser

    EU and EEA nationals, and citizens of visa-exempt countries, do not need a visa for short business visits to Germany. Other third-country nationals generally require a Schengen short-stay visa.

    Official visa page

    Weather

    Dortmund in November is cool and damp: daytime highs near 10 C (50 F), overnight lows near 4 C (39 F), and roughly 47 to 81 mm of rain spread over about 16 rainy days. The UV index stays low, so pack warm layers, a waterproof jacket and an umbrella for the 17 to 19 November 2026 show days.

    Plan for the climate

    Check temperatures and pack accordingly

    Venue connectivity

    Wi-Fi is widely available in Dortmund hotels and at Messe Dortmund, but business travellers often add a German eSIM or local data plan so time-critical work does not depend on a single network. Tethering and hotspot use depend on the plan; check roaming terms for your home SIM before travelling.

    Ride-hailing

    Taxis

    Public transit

    Car rentals

    Cultural notes

    Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.

    Tipping and payment

    Restaurant and taxi bills in Germany include service, and rounding up or adding five to ten per cent is the norm. Card payment is widely accepted in Dortmund, although some bakeries, kiosks and smaller taverns still prefer cash.

    Business etiquette and dress

    Punctuality is treated as a mark of respect and meetings usually open with a handshake and surnames rather than first names. Smart business dress suits the conference stages and hall meetings, while comfortable shoes matter on the concrete exhibition floors.

    Sunday closures and evening planning

    Most shops and supermarkets close on Sundays in North Rhine-Westphalia, so plan supplies and any city shopping around the show days. Restaurants near the Westfalenhallen and in the city centre fill quickly during large events, so reserve tables for evening meetings.

    Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials

    Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.

    Flights

    Visa

    Germany is part of the Schengen area. A Schengen short-stay visa is required for stays of up to 90 days within any 180-day period for business, visitor or tourist purposes. EU and EEA nationals, and citizens of visa-exempt countries, do not need a visa for short business visits.

    Estimated cost: Standard Schengen short-stay visa fee around EUR 90; confirm the current amount with your German mission or its visa centre.

    Processing: Applications are generally processed within about 15 working days from the day they arrive at the visa section.

    Apply through the official German mission or its visa centre well before travel. Bring a valid passport, travel insurance, an event registration or business invitation, and proof of accommodation and return travel.
