If you are also applying for St Petersburg 2007

The FIP exhibition has been confirmed for St Petersburg starting on 19th June 2007 just after Sydney Stamp Expo 2007 ends on 17th June.  We realise that exhibitors who apply for St Petersburg will not know whether they have been accepted until after our closing date of 18th February 2007.

We want to help by being very flexible.  If an exhibitor applies to enter the same exhibit at both Sydney Stamp Expo 2007 and St Petersburg 2007, the exhibit can be withdrawn from Sydney if it is subsequently accepted at St Petersburg.  Entry fees will be refunded in this case, but please let us know as soon as possible.  We are also happy if the exhibitor submits an alternate exhibit for Sydney Stamp Expo 2007 - it would probably be best to submit two entry forms, with a clear indication of the exhibitors preference.
