The entire event will be canceled due to major factors such as natural disasters and weather factors. However, even if the cancellation of the event is approved, there will be no refunds as all event preparations will be borne by the event partners as fixed costs.

A financial statement can be found via email from the Taiwan National Championship Event partner. After the registration list of participating teams is officially listed on the events.vex.com, the event partners will sort out the participating teams, prepare a payment notice, and send it to the main contact person of the participating teams. The letter will contain the following information, including team registration fees, bank transfer information, payment deadlines, etc. Please pay attention to relevant information. Thank you for your understanding.

Teams that have not paid by the payment deadline will be moved to the waitlist.

The Judge Advisor will download the Digital Engineering Notebooks for evaluation after the submission deadline, but will not prevent teams from continuing to update their Digital Engineering Notebooks.
Teams can participate in this event without an Engineering Notebook and still be interviewed, but the Team will not earn any top judged awards. For the most current award descriptions and judging criteria, please visit library.globalrobotics.org.
Late submissions or failure to submit the Engineering Notebook digitally will not be entertained. Please refer to the Refund Policy on Team withdrawal cases.

Team interviews will be conducted in person at the event. Each Team can bring their own physical engineering notebook as a presentation tool during the interview.
