UFI highly recommends that audits of exhibitor and visitor numbers by an UFI certified third-party auditor should be done where and when possible for all UFI Approved Events taking place around the world this year.

However, with COVID-19 continuing to disrupt the exhibition industry, and many exhibitions being cancelled or postponed, those exhibitions that have taken place have seen a reduction in exhibitor and visitor numbers due to the pandemic.

Due to these very exceptional circumstances, UFI has decided to temporarily postpone the mandatory requirement to provide audited figures for visitor and exhibitor numbers for all UFI Approved Events taking place in 2021. This is a temporary measure directly related to the pandemic, and this decision will be revoked as soon as the situation improves.

As a reminder, UFI requires audit certificates for every other edition of an UFI Approved Event, except for exhibitions that take place less frequently than once every two years. In these instances, every edition of these exhibitions must be audited to retain UFI Approved Event status.
