5) Registration and Visa Reminder
NeurIPS 2024 is committed to facilitating the participation of a global community. We understand the complexities and challenges associated with obtaining a Canadian visa, and have compiled visa information at https://neurips.cc/Conferences/2024/Visa. This link includes a step-by-step process to: Register, Generate your Visa Invitation Letter, Submit Your Canadian Visa Application, and then Return to the Visa Invitation Letter Page to enter your name, country and Visa Application number.
To support attendees that may need a visa in this process, we strongly encourage early registration for the conference. By registering promptly, participants can secure a visa invitation letter in advance of their visa appointments. We recognize that uncertainties exist, and in the unfortunate event of a visa denial, attendees have the option to cancel and refund their registration, as detailed in our cancellation policy (https://neurips.cc/FAQ/CancellationPolicy). Our goal is to ensure that NeurIPS 2024 is accessible to all who wish to attend, and we are here to assist you every step of the way.
6) Reminder to Provide Dietary Preferences
We urgently ask each delegate to update your profile with your dietary needs. Please do so by logging into your account and updating your profile at this link:

You must update the account that you will register for the conference with.
7) Reminder on NeurIPS Conference Dates
As a reminder, NeurIPS 2024 is occurring between Monday Dec 9 to Sunday Dec 15, 2024. Note that this differs from previous years in that we are starting on a Monday. We encourage all attendees to verify dates directly on our website to avoid confusion.
