A. INFORMATION FOR DELEGATIONS

1. Structure of the Organization

The World Meteorological Congress is the general assembly of delegates representing all Members (States and Territories) that meets normally once every four years. As the supreme body of the World Meteorological Organization, it determines the Organization’s general policies, regulations and procedures, strategy and budget, elects the President and Vice-Presidents of the Organization and members of the Executive Council, and appoints the Secretary-General.The Executive Council, as the executive body of the Organization, is entrusted with implementation of the decisions taken by the Members of the Organization. It meets every year. It is composed of the President and the Vice-Presidents of the Organization, the presidents of six regional associations and 27 Directors of National Meteorological or Hydrometeorological Services elected by Congress. In the performance of their duties, the Executive Council members act as representatives of the Organization and not as representatives of their respective countries. There are six regional associations (for Africa; Asia; South America; North America, Central America and the Caribbean; South-West Pacific and Europe) composed of Member States and Territories. They examine, from a regional point of view, all questions referred to them by Congress and Executive Council and coordinate meteorological and hydrological activities within Regions. On matters of regional interest, they submit recommendations to Congress and the Executive Council.The technical commissions (currently eight), composed of experts designated by Members, are established by Congress to review matters related to the scientific and technical activities of the Organization. They develop technical recommendations, which are subsequently submitted to the Executive Council and Congress for approval.

B. THE EIGHTEENTH WORLD METEOROLOGICAL CONGRESS (Cg-18)

1. Convening

The Eighteenth session of the World Meteorological Congress is convened in the International Conference Centre – Geneva (CICG, 17 rue de Varembé, Geneva) from Monday, 3 June to Friday, 14 June 2019 (15 June reserved). The Meteorology Technology World Expo will be held from 5-7 June in Palexpo, Geneva.

2. Composition

In accordance with Article 7 of the WMO Convention, the Congress, as the supreme body of the Organization, is composed of delegates representing Members; each Member designates one of its delegates, who should be the Director of its Meteorological or Hydrometeorological Service, as its principal delegate. The other participants are as follows:(a) Presidents of technical commissions of the Organization invited in accordance with

Article 19 of the Convention;(b) Observers:

(i) non-Member States maintaining their own Meteorological or Hydrometeorological Service, as invited by decision of the Members;

(ii) Representatives of the United Nations and the UN system organizations, and other intergovernmental organizations, invited by virtue of existing agreements, working arrangements or other provisions for reciprocal representation;

(iii) Representatives of non-governmental international organizations to which consultative status with WMO has been granted by the Executive Council;

(iv) Representatives of other non-governmental international organizations invited

Cg-18/INF. 1(1), p. 3

in accordance with the provisions of General Regulation 19;(v) Individual experts invited in a personal capacity in accordance with Article 7 of

the Convention and General Regulation 19.

3. Structure

The following committees may be established by Congress in accordance with the provisions of General Regulations 23 and 25 to 32:(a) A Credentials Committee, to examine the credentials of delegates and observers and report

thereon;(b) A Nomination Committee, to prepare and submit to the Congress a list of nominees for each

office or place for which an election is to be held;(c) A Coordination Committee, to be responsible for coordinating the activities of the session.

This Committee consists of the President, the Vice-Presidents, the Secretary-General and the chairs of working committees;

With the exception of the Coordination Committee, whose chair is normally the President of WMO, each Committee shall elect its own chair and, whenever necessary, other officers.

4. Credentials of delegations

All credentials that have not been sent to the Secretary-General should immediately, on arrival, be deposited by delegations with the officer-in-charge of credentials at the Conference Registration and Information Desk. All delegates and observers will have to be registered either in advance online or upon arrival at this desk and will receive badges.

17. Delegates’ mail – lost property

The Conference Registration and Information Desk will collect and deliver mail addressed to participants. The same desk will also deal with lost property.

18. Visas for travel to Switzerland

Where and how to apply for a visa: Switzerland applies Schengen regulations for the issuance of visas. This means that all participants requiring a visa to enter Switzerland should apply for their visa directly to the Embassy or Consulate-General of Switzerland in their country. In cases where no Swiss Embassy or Consulate is available, participants should apply to the country designated by Switzerland to handle visa applications.

Under Schengen regulations, it is necessary for each visa applicant to make an appointment and to present him/herself in person, in order to submit and register biometric data. On 11 October 2011, the Schengen member states introduced the Visa Information System (VIS), which is used to store biometric data of Schengen visa applicants. Data remains valid in the VIS system for a period of 5 years.

Additional information in several languages regarding the implementation of the VIS system, registration of biometric data and the rollout timetable for Swiss embassies/consulates implementing the VIS system is available through the following link:

www.bfm.admin.ch/bfm/en/home/themen/einreise/einfuehrung_vis.html

When to apply: Time needed to obtain a visa may vary from case to case. It is strongly recommended that delegates inform themselves on the relevant appointment system and procedures as early as possible, to ensure that the visa may be issued in a timely manner. Delegates can find this information on relevant national government websites, or they can consult directly with the Swiss Embassy/Consulate in the applicant’s country of residence.

Special circumstances: In cases where no diplomatic relations exist between a Member and Switzerland, or where a Member considers that some difficulties may be experienced in obtaining visas, delegates can submit a visa request directly to Switzerland. However, under Annex I of the General Regulations of the Organization, this request must be sent by the delegate to the Secretary-General of the World Meteorological Organization who will in turn submit it to Switzerland.

Such requests must contain all the necessary details: name, surname, date and place of birth, father's name, nationality, passport number, date and place of issue, expiry date, profession, place where the visa is to be issued, and duration of stay in Switzerland. Requests should be received by the Secretary-General as far in advance of Congress as possible.

Additional information: Additional information regarding entry visas for Switzerland and Swiss representation abroad may be found through the following links:
