"Late entries
According to FIDE Tournament Rules, any prospective participant who has not arrived at the venue of a FIDE competition before the scheduled time for the drawing of lots shall be excluded from the tournament. An exception may be made in the case of a registered participant who has given written notice in advance that he will be unavoidably late. Where the Chief Arbiter decides to admit a Late Entrant,
if the player's notified time of arrival is in time for the start of the first round, the player is given a pairing number and paired in the usual way.
if the player's notified time of arrival is in time only for the start of the second (or third) round, then the player is not paired for the rounds which he cannot play. Instead, he receives no points for unplayed rounds, and is given an appropriate pairing number and paired only when he actually arrives. In these circumstances, the Pairing Numbers that were given at the start of the tournament are considered provisional. The definitive Pairing Numbers are given only when the List of Participants is closed, and corrections made accordingly in the results charts. A player who is not present cannot receive the Bye.

Use it and it will avoid unnecessary headaches to other players.
