	'''Coordination with AFNLP''': Following the ACL Q3 2025 resolution authorizing AACL to negotiate independently with AFNLP, formal communication with AFNLP President Sadao Kurohashi was completed during Q2 2026. AACL and AFNLP confirmed continued collaboration through the IJCNLP-AACL series, with AACL-IJCNLP 2028 and IJCNLP-AACL 2029 envisaged as the next two joint editions.

	'''IJCNLP 2027''': Given that ACL 2027 is scheduled for Japan, AACL has expressed full support for ACL 2027 as the primary regional event and endorsed AFNLP's plan to organize an independent IJCNLP 2027, with Min Zhang serving as CCC Chair. AACL will coordinate scheduling and logistics with AFNLP as needed.

	~~== Community Engagement and Cross-Conference Contributions ==~~
	'''ACL Chinese-Language Outreach''': In coordination with ACL Publicity Director Sarvnaz Karimi, AACL helped establish an officially verified ACL account on Xiaohongshu (RedNote). The account, operated by a recommended student volunteer under ACL publicity guidelines, is intended to provide timely conference information and reduce miscommunication on Chinese social platforms. The verification was completed in Q2 2026 with support from the ACL Office, the Treasurer, and the President.

	'''Phase 1 Data and Phase 2 Plan''': ARR May 2026 received 17,083 valid submissions with venue preference distribution: EMNLP 16,683 (97.7%), AACL 308 (1.8%), other ACL venues less than 1% combined. Given the limited Phase 1 volume, AACL plans to open a Phase 2 commitment after the EMNLP notification, accepting prior-cycle ARR submissions and EMNLP-rejected papers, in line with the original two-round strategy. The Phase 2 window will be coordinated with NAACL 2027 and COLING 2027 (both confirmed for the October 2026 ARR cycle) to avoid further reviewer overload.

Derek F. Wong (University of Macau) serves as Local Chair. Workshop chairs have been recruited and joined the joint workshop selection process led by the ACL Workshop Officer.

'''ARR Integration and Phase 1 Commitment''': AACL-IJCNLP 2026 uses the ARR May 2026 cycle, which is shared with EMNLP 2026. Following discussion among ACL Exec, ARR EiCs, EMNLP and AACL PCs, a one-time mutual-exclusivity policy was adopted for this cycle: authors must declare AACL or EMNLP as the target venue at submission time. Phase 1 commitment opens to ARR May submissions that explicitly select AACL 2026, with the AACL commitment deadline before the EMNLP notification (September 7, 2026).

'''Phase 1 Data and Phase 2 Plan''': ARR May 2026 received 17,083 valid submissions with venue preference distribution: EMNLP 16,683 (97.7%), AACL 308 (1.8%), other ACL venues less than 1% combined. Given the limited Phase 1 volume, AACL plans to open a Phase 2 commitment after the EMNLP notification, accepting prior-cycle ARR submissions and EMNLP-rejected papers, in line with the original two-round strategy.

The local team has confirmed capacity for at least ten parallel workshop rooms at the Hengqin venue. AACL has also requested participation in a similar joint Call for Tutorials, pending ACL Exec confirmation of an appropriate coordinator.

'''Camera-ready Quality Control''': Hallucinated-reference detection tools and updated CFP wording on citation integrity, following the ACL 2026 post-acceptance desk-rejection episode, will be integrated into the AACL camera-ready process.
