Request to Transfer Event Registration

Hello,

I would like to inquire whether it is possible for a registered attendee's colleague to attend this event in their place if the original registrant is no longer able to participate.

If substitutions are permitted, could you please advise on the process and any information required to update the registration?

Thank you for your assistance.

    Hi HEIDARLOU,

    Based on the information available, whether a colleague may attend in place of the original registrant depends on the event organizer's registration policy. At this time, Microsoft Teams does not provide a documented method for attendees to directly transfer or modify an existing event registration.

    In most cases, the recommended approach is for the original registrant to cancel their registration, if that option is available, and for the colleague to register separately using their own name and email address. If the event uses manual registration approval, the organizer will need to review and approve the new registration request. Organizers can manage attendee registrations, including approving or declining requests, through Microsoft Teams.

    For more information, please refer to: Manage event registration in the Microsoft Teams Events app.

    If registration has already closed or the event has reached its capacity, I recommend contacting the event organizer directly and providing the following details:

    • Original registrant's full name and email address
    • Substitute attendee's full name and email address
    • Organization and job title (if requested during registration)
    • Any registration confirmation or reference number

    I hope this helps clarify the available options. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please feel free to let me know.

    Warm regards.
