The stand space booked via the online application does not include stand building. You have the following alternatives to build your stand:

• Using your own stand, naturally taking into account the technical guidelines; you can add services from the Exhibitor Shop, such as electricity
• Ordering equipment such as flooring, partition walls, furniture, etc. individually via the Exhibitor Shop
• Commissioning a stand builder, e.g. meplan
• Booking a stand package, with registration

Submit any necessary documentation to the Technical Exhibitor Service, if one of the following cases applies:

• The stand or advertising height is over 3m (stand plan).
• The stand size is over 100sqm (stand plan).
• If there are covered stand areas (stand plan).
• A vehicle is exhibited (Form 1.2 "Application for Preventive Fire Protection Measures").

• You will receive the login information for the Exhibitor Shop by e-mail after confirmation of your stand proposal.

Your entry in the exhibitor directory as well as in the visitor guide is managed by the publishing house jl. Medien e.K. This is our only partner in this area.

• You will receive the proof of the company entry from the publisher. Please check the material and give the publisher appropriate feedback.
• Also make sure that you exhaust the scope of the entry included in the communication fee, which includes three entries in the list of goods and three destinations or brands (see also Conditions of Participation B). This way, iterested visitors can find you more easily.
• If desired, additional services can be booked (such as your logo in the printed visitor guide), for which a fee is charged.

Attention!

We would like to point out that electronica exhibitors are frequently contacted by other companies that are supposedly acting on behalf of Messe München. Please note that these companies have not been commissioned by us.

All information regarding set-up and dismantling, logistics and traffic on the exhibition grounds—e.g. traffic guide, delivery of goods, approved forwarding agents—can be found under Logistics & Traffic.

Admission invoice

Admission invoices will be sent out from June 2026. Payment deadline is beginning September 2026.

• The invoice recipient is always the company registered as an exhibitor. If a different invoice recipient is desired, the management team of the trade fair must be informed by e-mail to management@electronica.de as early as possible and a corresponding form must be requested, completed and returned.
• Co-exhibitors may not specify a different invoice recipient.
• Subsequent invoice changes will be invoiced at 50 EUR (see "Special Terms of Participation B")

Final invoice

The final invoice will be sent out around mid-December 2026. Here, the item "Advance payment for services" listed on the admission invoice will be taken into account.

Important: Please send important information for invoicing (e.g. order/purchase order numbers or “different invoice recipient” form) to management@electronica.de by end of October at the latest. According to the Special Terms of Participation B, a later invoice rewriting is only possible for a fee of 50.00 EUR.
