Payment and currencies

Local organization expenses

In case you need to pay anything to the local organizers (e.g. for accommodation or meals) - all payments should be done in cash and in rubles. No other means is accepted. The change value is about 40 rur/eur.

We encourage you to prepare the expected amount of payment for your team beforehand to be able to pay for your expenses on your arrival to get enough vouchers etc. Though there will be time while the teams are coming during the first day or two, we expect teams to pay on registration.
