– Make sure to write down your name and surname in the purpose of payment section- this will inform us that exactly you did the payment.

– Keep a good track of your money transfer – it sometimes gets delayed by specific bank services. Ask for a confirmation from your bank for the payment when it has reached the SOFIMUN bank account.

– Make a research about through which bank/s the transfer tax will be less in order to transfer the participation fee to SOFIMUN.

– Use international banks or mainly old banks.

– Note that transfer made through more than two banks (one sending and one receiving) costs a transfer tax for each of the mediator banks.

– Gathering of several participation fees and their transfer through only one bank account can save you several bank transfer taxes. If you do that, DO NOT FORGET TO INCLUDE IN “PURPOSE OF PAYMENT” and “ADDITIONAL INFORMATION” SECTIONS ALL THE NAMES AND SURNAMES OF PARTICIPANTS YOU’RE PAYING FOR. If not, we won’t consider them as participants.
