The Conference cannot contact or intervene with any Embassy or Consulate office abroad on your behalf so please begin your visa application process as soon as you determine that you want to attend IEEE SAS 2023. Please provide as much information as possible to avoid delays in receiving your letter.

Currently, there are no vaccination or test requirement certificates required to enter Canada.
