Publishing available Zoom Events in India

The Zoom Events platform notifies event organizers without business information about India regulation requirements and allows them to enter their business information so they can easily complete event setup.

The first time a host includes India as a country that is allowed to register for their event, the host must add information about their business after clicking Save to save the information in the Business Information tab.

• Hosts who are also the hub owner will be required to add information about the business to the hub.
• Hosts who are not the hub owner will have to ask the hub owner/account admin to add information about the business to the hub they belong to.

Note: Only free events can be made available to India.
