For Speakers
The registration will open on September 15, 2026. All participants whose papers have been accepted and who wish to take part in the conference have to register and (if applicable) pay the conference fee by September 30, 2026.
The conference fee is
- 90 EUR per person,
- reduced to 50 EUR per person in case of students. (The reduced fee is there to allow self-supported students to participate in the conference. The fee does not cover the actual costs of the participation in the conference. Therefore, if you are a doctoral student but your institution or grant funding that you have will cover your participation in the conference, please pay the full price.)
The conference fee for those who are based outside of Europe and are unable to join us in person and will therefore be joining us online is
- 50 EUR per paper (i.e., in case of online co-authored papers, everyone taking part in the conference must register, but only one person must pay the fee; in case of co-authored papers presented in hybrid mode, everyone taking part in the conference must register, but only the on-site participants must pay the fee).
Please note that if you are a researcher or a student affiliated with the Department of Asian Studies at Palacký University Olomouc, you will have your participation fee covered by the Department. Therefore, you do not pay any fee yourself and in the registration form you must choose “free of charge” as your fee category.
The fee includes refreshments (lunches, coffee breaks) for both days of the conference, a conference guide, a certificate of participation, and administrative costs, including 21% tax.
The fee can be paid by card (preferred) or by bank transfer. Payment by card is possible via the payment gate immediately upon submitting the registration form or later via a link provided in the registration confirmation email that you will receive. If you need to use the bank transfer method, complete the registration form and then use the details provided in the registration confirmation email to pay the fee. Please remember to fill in the variable symbol and the message for recipient to make the identification of your payment easier.
Please note that you can cancel your participation and get full refund up until 14 days after your payment. We are not able to return the conference fee in case you cancel your participation later.
Receipts for fee payment will be issued and sent as PDF to the email addresses of those who requested them in the registration form before the conference takes place in early November. They are not issued automatically. If you need to receive your receipt earlier, please let us know by email.
