Warning for exhibitors!

In past years, we had informed you that a Mexican company working under the name “Commercial Online Manuals S de RL de CV” had contacted a number of Messe Karlsruhe’s exhibitors asking them to update their entries in the exhibitor directory for a specific trade fair.


At present, this and other companies (e.g. International Fairs Directory) are increasingly active on the German market. We would like to make it clear to you that these companies have no connection whatsoever with IT-TRANS or Messe Karlsruhe. The entries in the specified portals “EXPO GUIDE” (www.expo-guide.com or www.interfairs.com) are not related to any of our trade fairs. As can be seen in the small print, such a service is not free either – rather, it costs €1,181 per year to place such an advert for a period of three years. We would urgently advise against signing up for this allegedly free directory entry and, should you receive such a communication, we recommend that you ignore it.


Messe Karlsruhe expressly distances itself from the “International Fairs Directory”.
