Visa Information
It is imperative that authors and attendees allow sufficient time to obtain visas.
You can check whether you need a visa to visit Italy. In particular, citizens from EU/EEA do not need a visa to enter Italy. Visas are obtained in the consulates or embassies of Italy in the country of origin. Requirements and processing times may depend on the origin of the visitor. We strongly recommend investigating the concrete conditions for your case well in advance. In particular, invitation letter requests should be sent early enough.
Invitation Letters
Conference attendees who require a visa will typically need an invitation letter from the General co-Chairs. To speed-up the process, please provide us the following information as soon as possible in your request to fse2025 at iacr.org with the subject "Visa Invitation Letter Request":
- your full name as it will appear on the letter, date of birth, nationality, passport number, and institute;
- the title of your paper at ToSC/FSE 2025, if applicable;
- an up-to-date Curriculum Vitae (CV) that includes, if applicable, a list of publications;
- a brief statement explaining your interests in the conference;
- a list of any recent IACR conferences you have attended and/or a reference in the crypto community who has attended past IACR conferences.
We hope that you will be able to attend FSE 2025 and help us make the conference a great success.
