IJCB 2027 — IEEE/IAPR International Joint Conference on Biometrics
by IEEE Biometrics Council and the IAPR Technical Committee on Biometrics
The flagship biometrics research conference, in Brazil for 2027 with a full rebuttal-based review cycle.
About This Event
IJCB 2027, the IEEE/IAPR International Joint Conference on Biometrics, takes place 13–17 September 2027 in Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil. It is the field's flagship annual research meeting, organised jointly by the IEEE Biometrics Council and the IAPR Technical Committee on Biometrics — the two bodies that sponsor the world's principal biometrics conferences — and it is carried on the International Association for Pattern Recognition's official conference schedule. The 2027 edition publishes its full review cycle a year ahead, and it is a rebuttal-based one: full papers are due 9 April 2027, reviews are released to authors on 14 June, the rebuttal deadline is 21 June, final decisions follow on 12 July, and camera-ready papers are due 2 August 2027. Dates for the competitions, tutorials, special sessions, journal presentations, demos and exhibitions, doctoral consortium, travel grants and early registration are still listed as TBA on the official important-dates page.

Topics & Focus Areas
Who Should Attend
- ✓Biometrics researchers
- ✓Computer vision scientists
- ✓Identity and access management leads
- ✓Fraud prevention and security engineers
- ✓Government identity programme managers
- ✓Privacy and compliance officers
Why Attend
Biometrics is where AI meets regulated identity, and IJCB is the one venue where the research community, the standards people and the groups building face, iris and fingerprint systems are all in the same room. For a CISO, head of identity or fraud lead evaluating biometric authentication or liveness detection, five days here is the fastest way to see what the current state of the art actually does — and, more usefully, where it still fails — before committing to a procurement decision. The competitions track is the specific reason to go: it benchmarks systems against each other under common conditions instead of leaving you with vendor-reported accuracy figures. The doctoral consortium and travel-grant cohort double as a hiring channel.
Event Features
- ✓Main conference paper track with a published rebuttal stage (reviews released 14 June, rebuttal due 21 June 2027)
- ✓Biometrics competitions track
- ✓Tutorials programme
- ✓Special sessions track
- ✓Journal presentations track
- ✓Demos and exhibitions
- ✓Doctoral consortium
- ✓Travel grants programme
What Makes This Unique
- ★The joint IEEE/IAPR event — it merges the two formerly separate flagship biometrics conferences, so the field converges in one place rather than splitting across two.
- ★Runs a formal rebuttal stage, with review-release and rebuttal dates published more than a year ahead of the conference.
- ★Held in Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil — a South American edition rather than the usual North America / Europe / East Asia rotation, which widens access for Latin American identity and security research groups.
- ★Carries a competitions track alongside the main papers, which benchmarks systems head to head rather than relying on vendor-reported numbers.
- ★Runs a doctoral consortium and a travel-grants programme, so it functions as a recruiting venue as well as a research one.
