COLING 2027 will also feature a special theme track devoted to uses of NLP/LLMs 
in service of linguistic research, with a particular focus on linguistic 
diversity. A more detailed description of the special theme will be distributed 
in mid-August.

Submission Details

All papers must be submitted through ACL Rolling Review (ARR). The latest 
possible time to submit is the ARR 2026 October cycle, but papers that have 
already received reviews and a meta-review from ARR from earlier cycles can 
also be committed to COLING 2027. Please note that the October ARR cycle is 
shared between COLING 2027 and NAACL 2027 and that authors will be able to 
choose which conference they want to commit their paper to (only) after the 
meta-reviews have been released.


COLING 2027 invites the submission of long papers of up to eight (8) pages and 
short papers of up to four (4) pages. These page limits only apply to the main 
body of the paper. At the end of the paper (after the conclusion but before the 
references) papers need to include a mandatory section discussing the 
limitations of the work and, optionally, a section discussing ethical 
considerations. Papers can include unlimited pages of references and an 
unlimited appendix. Authors should follow the general instructions for COLING 
2027 proceedings, which will be published on the conference website together 
with submission templates.
