Eurocrypt 2026

Visa Information

It is imperative that authors and attendees allow sufficient time to obtain visas.

Participants from EU nations and from USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand do not need a visa to enter Italy. Several NON-EU citizens will need a visa. We strongly recommend you to check the official website of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for updated and detailed information regarding entrance visas and permits of stay in Italy.

We recommend you also to contact the Italian embassy or consulate nearest to you. If an entry visa is required, please allow sufficient time for this procedure. Upon entering Italy and the Schengen Area, even if you have a visa, border authorities are authorised once again to check the documents required for issuance of the visa.

Invitation letters

Conference attendees who require a visa will typically need an invitation letter from the general chair. Kindly email your request, using the subject “Visa Invitation Letter Request”, to eurocrypt2026 at iacr.org.

To expedite the process, please provide as many of the following pieces of information as possible in your request:
