Invitation Letter Support
To support international participants in planning their travel, the 26th International Conference on Human Resource Management provides official invitation letters upon request to confirmed registrants. These letters are issued on conference letterhead and include key details such as the event dates, venue location in Richmond Hill, Canada, and the participant’s registration status, providing the documentation typically required by embassies and consular offices when processing travel applications.
Invitation letters are issued exclusively to individuals who have completed their registration and, where applicable, have had their abstract or paper accepted through the formal review process. Requests are processed by the conference secretariat within a reasonable timeframe, and participants are advised to apply for their letters well in advance of their intended visa application date to allow sufficient processing time by the relevant immigration authorities.
It is important for all international participants to understand that the issuance of an official invitation letter by the 26th ICHRM organizing committee does not in any way constitute a guarantee of visa approval. Visa decisions rest solely with the immigration authorities of Canada and the applicant’s home country, and the conference holds no responsibility for outcomes of visa applications submitted using conference documentation.
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.

Disclaimer
- The 26th International Conference on Human Resource Management adopts a multidisciplinary approach, welcoming scholarly contributions from adjacent fields including organizational psychology, labor economics, public administration, sociology of work, and management information systems, provided submissions demonstrate clear relevance to HRM themes and challenges.
- Inclusion in the conference program — whether as a presenter, panelist, or workshop facilitator — is contingent upon completed registration and payment of the applicable conference fee by the specified deadline; failure to confirm attendance through registration may result in removal from the published program.
- Participants are reminded that attendance at individual sessions, keynote addresses, and workshops is subject to venue capacity constraints and, in some cases, prior sign-up requirements; the organizing committee reserves the right to manage room allocations to ensure a safe and productive conference environment for all attendees.
