Subject: COP31 Nomination for UNFCCC Accreditation Now Open

Why this matters: COP31 is the most important international climate meeting of the year, and a key opportunity for business to engage with the UNFCCC process and contribute practical private sector perspectives on the implementation of the Paris Agreement.

Action(s) needed: Please share this call for nominations with your network and submit expressions of interest by 3 August (COB CEST).

Dear colleagues,

We hope this email finds you well.

We are pleased to inform you that the nomination process for accreditation to COP31 is now open.

As in previous years, ICC will centralise accreditation for representatives from ICC members, National Committees and Chambers of Commerce. If you or your colleagues would like to be nominated to attend the conference, please complete this registration form as soon as possible and no later than 3 August (COB CEST).

Please note that submitting a nomination does not guarantee accreditation. We expect a limited amount of badges to be available but will be working to ensure maximum access for the ICC network.

The official UNFCCC COP31 accreditation pass provides access to both the Blue Zone (the formal negotiations zone, managed by the UNFCCC) and the Green Zone (the public engagement and civil society zone, managed by the COP31 Presidency).

We look forward to working with you to ensure a strong and diverse business presence at COP31 and we thank you, as always, for your continued engagement.

Best wishes,

ICC COP31 Team
