As SIGCOMM 2024 will be held at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) Sydney, Australia, visa requirements will depend on your nationality and current residence. To confirm whether you require a visa, please check the visa requirements for your nationality at https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-finder. If a visa is necessary, it is important to apply for it promptly, as visa processing times can be unpredictable and lengthy.
You may need to submit a visa support letter as part of your visa application process. ACM is offering visa support letters to all registered attendees, authors, students, and committee members of SIGCOMM 2024. These letters will be provided regardless of whether they present a paper or not, as long as they attend the event. If you require a visa support letter, please complete your registration and then send an email to supportletters@acm.org with the following details:
Visa support letters are processed in the order they are received. You will receive a PDF letter via email within 7-10 business days. The PDF letter will be a signed electronic version of the original letter. Please print and bring the PDF visa support letter to your visa appointment. The original letter will only be mailed upon explicit request. Kindly note that registered and paid conference participants will receive visa support letters. If a participant withdraws from the conference after receiving the visa support letter, the consulate will be informed accordingly.
Please be aware that ACM does not issue formal letters of invitation for any ACM-sponsored conferences.
Please give 10 business days to ACM for sending your visa support letter.
If you encounter any difficulties with the visa application process or have other concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us.
We wish you the best of luck with your travel arrangements!
