Where INTCEC 2027 takes place, how to get there, and how to request an invitation letter for your visa.

Stay
Book early
Participants book their own accommodation. The venue is a hotel, so you can also stay where the conference takes place; downtown Chicago fills up quickly, so book early.
Visa and invitation letter
International participants who need a visa for the United States should start the application as early as possible.
- Register for INTCEC 2027. Invitation letters are issued to registered authors.
- Request the letter with the form on this page, by e-mail or on WhatsApp.
- Use the letter in your visa application. An invitation letter does not guarantee that a visa will be granted.
If your visa is refused, you can switch to online presentation right away. Your registration stays valid, and once you present online your paper is treated like every other presented paper — the visa decision does not affect publication. The same applies if your visa does not arrive in time. Registration fees are not refundable, so switching to online is the way to keep your paper in the programme.
