What does AoE mean for deadlines?

AoE stands for Anywhere-on-Earth (UTC-12). A deadline set for a given date in AoE has not passed until that date is over everywhere on the planet, so you effectively have until 11:59pm on that date in the UTC-12 time zone. The countdowns on this page are computed in AoE.

Are these deadlines official?

These are indicative dates compiled from each conference's typical timeline and announced calls, last reviewed on August 28, 2026. Deadlines change every cycle and are often updated or extended, so always confirm on the official CFP, which is linked from every conference in the list, before you plan around a date.

What time zone are the deadlines in?

Most AI conferences use Anywhere-on-Earth (AoE, UTC-12), meaning a deadline is not passed until it is past that date everywhere on the planet. The countdowns on this page are computed in AoE. Verify the exact policy on the official site.

What is the difference between the abstract and paper deadline?

Many conferences (such as NeurIPS, ICLR and AAAI) require you to register a title and abstract a few days before the full paper is due. Where this applies, both dates are shown. Missing the abstract deadline usually means you cannot submit the full paper.

How can I suggest a conference or a correction?
