To All Members,

Dear Friends,

Sub: IATO Membership for the Branch offices as Associate Member

During my recent visit to Jaipur for participation in Rajasthan Domestic Travel Mart in Jaipur, it was brought to our notice by few officials of Branch offices that they are not being invited for the IATO Chapter Meetings or other activities being organize by the IATO State Chapters and were complaining that Chapter Chairmen/Co-Chairmen are not active.

In this regard, please note branch offices are not automatically the members of IATO and are not  being invited for the meetings or any other activities being organized by any of the State Chapter Chairman.  State Chapter Chairman have data of the members in their respective state only and not the branch offices until and unless branch office is member of IATO.

In this regard it is to clarify that there is a provision for our members to get membership of branch offices to as Associate membership of IATO so that their branch heads can attend the State Chapter Chairmen meetings and keep themselves abreast on various issues.
