  • All work submitted must be in the exact form it was broadcast, published or released with all the logos, trademarks and copy marks intact, regardless of category or sub-category. Work must not be altered for submission purposes.

When sending Physical Material:

  • Do not affix or wrap forms around the entry material. All forms should be sent flat in an envelope.

  • If an entrant specifically requests the return of entry material, LIA will make every effort to comply. LIA indemnifies itself of any loss or damage to the original entry. The entrant assumes all costs for packing and shipping for the return of the work. These requests must be made via email to christina@liaawards.com, upon finalizing your entry.
