Most people won't need to mail in paperwork any more! If you're paying by PayPal or in person, there's no need to mail in a copy of your confirmation email. We do recommend you print it anyway, keep it safe and bring it with you to Esprit as it contains important information and will also simplify your checkin when you arrive.
Please note that if you're mailing in your payment (check or money order) then you MUST still print and enclose your confirmation email.
