This is an incidental service to ensure that your contractual obligations are met.

To make sure everyone has sufficient cover to meet this requirement, we have added the Exhibitor Protection Scheme to your contract. Not only does this provide you with the contractual limit of £2m Public Liability insurance it also includes other benefits (such as £20k for property loss and £20k for costs relating to cancellation). We will happily remove this and raise a credit note against your deposit invoice if you have your own cover. InEvexco, our administrator, will email you with a link so you can upload your policy, and provided this is OK, we will raise the credit note straight away. If you have any queries on this, please speak with your sales account manager or contact our Customer Success Team.
