Invitation Letter Support
Upon completing registration for the 26th International Conference on Accounting and Financial Management in Toronto, delegates may formally request an official invitation letter issued by the conference secretariat. This document confirms your accepted participation status and is issued promptly to assist with institutional approvals, travel reimbursements, funding applications, or leave of absence requests from employers and universities.
The invitation letter bears the conference’s official branding, outlines the event dates and venue details, and references the delegate’s specific role — whether as a paper presenter, co-author, or general attendee. Requests are processed within a standard turnaround period, and the secretariat is available to tailor specific content where institutional requirements demand particular phrasing or supporting documentation.
Please be advised that while every effort is made to provide a professionally prepared and timely invitation letter, the issuance of this document by the ICAFM 2027 organising committee does not in any way guarantee the approval of a visa or travel authorisation by any government or border authority. All visa applications remain solely subject to the policies and discretionary decisions of the relevant embassy or consulate, and delegates are strongly advised to initiate immigration processes well in advance of the conference.
Terms & Conditions
- Please note that all registration fees are non-refundable, non-negotiable, and non-transferable.
- Please make your own arrangements for visa (if applicable), accommodation and transportation.
- After verifying your successful payment, a regular invitation letter will be sent within 3 business days.
- Changes due to spelling or minor mistakes in the invitation letter will cost US$50.
- Invitation letter will not be provided for the Domestic Listener (Early Bird) ticket category.
Disclaimer
- The 26th International Conference on Accounting and Financial Management welcomes scholarship from adjacent disciplines including economics, business law, public administration, and data science, recognising that meaningful advances in financial management frequently emerge at the intersection of multiple fields of enquiry.
- Submission of an abstract or full paper to ICAFM 2027 does not itself constitute confirmed attendance; only delegates who have completed the formal registration process and received written confirmation from the secretariat are considered officially enrolled participants with access to sessions, materials, and certification.
- Registered attendees are encouraged to participate actively across the full conference programme; however, the organising committee acknowledges that individual scheduling constraints may affect session attendance, and certificates of participation will reflect the registered delegate status rather than a verified record of every session attended.
