Substitution and Cancellation 

Canada 2022 Refund Policy

ACAMS Canada Conference 2022 passes are non-refundable. Pass holders may request a pass transfer to another person, colleague or client up until October 12, 2022. 

Covid-19 Policy: At the discretion of ACAMS, pass holders will receive a refund of a conference pass if the pass holder is unable to attend the in-person event, at any time, in Toronto because the pass holder has been diagnosed with Covid-19 or if government-issued travel restrictions are in place during the event dates. If a pass holder is unable to attend because of the Covid-19 illness, ACAMS reserves the right to request proof of a positive diagnosis. If a pass holder has been potentially exposed to someone who is positive for COVID-19, a pass transfer to a future in-person event can be made.

Government-issued travel restrictions include: 

• The country/state that you live in closes its borders to travel
• The country/state you live in issues advice not to travel to Toronto, Canada
• The country/state you live in has imposed an unavoidable quarantine on return from travel
• There is an unavoidable quarantine on arrival in Toronto, Canada 
• There is a further lockdown phase in the country/state you live in that prevents you from leaving your home except for essential requirements

In the event Toronto, Canada announces a return to Covid-19 restrictions, ACAMS will abide by local government and the Public Health Agency of Canada guidelines. Due to new limited seating your conference pass may be subject to change to the next in-person event. Seats will be allocated based on time of purchase.

If the province of Ontario governing body imposes a new restriction that prohibits ACAMS from holding an in-person event you will be able to transfer your pass to virtual or the next in-person event. Refunds will not be available.
