We look forward to welcoming you to IEEE SLED 2027 in Modena, Italy, on 8β10 September 2027. Please check the entry requirements for your journey well in advance and consult the official sources below for up-to-date guidance.
Checking your visa requirements
Visa requirements depend on your nationality, country of residence, purpose of travel and length of stay. Use the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs portal to check the requirements that apply to you and identify the relevant Italian embassy or consulate.
Visa for Italy β official visa requirements portal
If you already hold a Schengen visa or a residence permit issued by a Schengen country, check with the relevant consular authority whether it covers your planned journey.
Planning your Application
If you need a visa, begin preparing well in advance. Consult the Italian embassy or consulate responsible for your place of legal residence for appointment arrangements, application deadlines, required documents and current processing information. Appointment availability and processing times may vary.

Invitation Letters
Visa invitation letters are issued upon request after conference registration has been completed and full payment of the registration fee has been received. To request a letter, please contact info@ieee-sled2027.org and include your registration reference. Your personal details must match those shown in your passport. The letter will be sent electronically.
An invitation letter does not guarantee that a visa will be issued or that entry into Italy will be permitted. It does not constitute a commitment by the organisers to cover travel, accommodation or other expenses.
Travelling without a visa
If you are exempt from visa requirements, check the official European Union website to find out whether an ETIAS travel authorisation applies to your journey. Consult the current requirements and implementation arrangements before travelling.
Contact and official guidance
For questions about participation and conference supporting documents, contact the SLED 2027 organisers. For advice on your individual visa requirements or an application in progress, contact the relevant Italian embassy or consulate.
