Administration |
|
1.11 |
Play shall be governedby the FIDE Laws of Chess and FIDE Tournament Rules. Minor deviations may be permitted by the Technical Commission Chairman.
The tournament system must be a fair one. Tournaments where the composition is changed (without FIDE approval) during the tournament or those where players have different conditions in terms of rounds and pairing are not valid.
The tournament must be registered at least 30 days in advance on the FIDE server, and all details of the tournament must be published in the FIDE calendar. |
|
1.12 |
There must be no more than twelve hours play in one day. This is calculated based on games that last 60 moves, although games played using increments may last longer. |
|
1.13 |
That no more than two rounds be played on any one day. |
|
1.14 |
The tournament must be played by using one of the following rates of play:
90 minutes with 30 seconds cumulative increment for each move starting from first move
(This time control is valid only until 31.12.2010.)
90 minutes for 40 moves + 30 minutes with 30 seconds cumulative increment for each move starting from the first move
100 minutes for 40 moves followed by 50 minutes for 20 moves, then 15 minutes for the remaining moves with 30 seconds cumulative increment for each move starting from first move
40 moves in 2 hours followed by 30 minutes for the rest of the game
40 moves in 2 hours followed by 60 minutes for the rest of the game
40 moves in 2 hours followed by 20 moves in 1 hour followed by 30 minutes for the rest of the game |
|
1.15 |
Normally only events played in a period of at most 90 days are permitted. Leagues and national team championships of a longer duration are permitted. The QC Chairman may give prior approval to tournaments lasting longer than 90 days. |
|
1.16 |
Calculating the norm requirements for an event which lasts longer than 90 days can be done in two ways. Which system is used must be stipulated prior to the event and mentioned in all publicity and indicated on all norm certificates IT1.
The same system as in B.02.4.12 must be used for calculating rating changes.
(a) The Rating List at the start of the competition shall be used, or
(b) The opponents’ ratings at the date the game is played shall be used. |
|
1.17 |
The tournament shall be conducted by an International Arbiter, failing that, by a FIDE Arbiter.
|
| 1.2 |
Titles achieved from International Championships: |
|
1.21 |
As indicated below, a player may gain a
(a) title from such an event or
(b) gain a single title result (norm). Then the requirements in 1.42 - 1.49 shall apply.
(c) gain a single performance norm. Then the requirements in 1.22, 1.42, 1.46-1.48 shall apply.
|
|
1.22 |
The minimum score is 35% for all titles. The result shown is the minimum required. |
|
1.23 |
With the exception of IBCA, ICSC and IPCA, in the continental, regional or other associations’ competitions mentioned below, a title or result can be achieved only if at least 1/3 of the appropriate member federations participate in the event.
The minimum number of participants in the tournament is eight. |
|
1.24 |
A norm in Olympiad etc. (see the chart below) is worth 20 games; a performance result is worth 13 games. |

Remarks:
(a) For example: Women’s World Championship: Finalist = 9 game GM norm. This means that the result counts as if it was a norm and had met all the necessary requirements.
(b) Wherea zonal/subzonal is played with preliminaries and finals, the results shall be pooled.
(c) Subzonals must be approved by the Presidential Board.
(d) For zonals/subzonals only one IM/WIM title can be obtained based on a result ≥66 2/3 percent, only two FM/WFM titles can be obtained based on a result ≥50 percent.
(e) The result must be achieved in consecutive games starting from the first game the player plays in the tournament. If a player achieves ≥4½ points (3½ points for CM/WCM), the title is awarded, even if the player does not play 9 games (7 games for CM/WCM)
(f) 1st = means shared first place.

Determining whether a result is adequate for a norm, dependent on the average rating of the opponents.
Chart 1.49a shows the rating range for tournaments up to 19 rounds, although such norms count as only 13 rounds if of 14-19 games.
|
|
|
Tables 1.49a
These tables have been prepared such that the minimum average rating of the opponents is 2380 for a GM norm, 2230 for an IM norm, 2180 for a WGM norm and 2030 for a WIM norm, as required for the respective titles.
The minimum score is 35% for all titles.
Except world or continental championships the norm achieved in a tournament with more than 13 rounds counts only as 13 games.

Requirements for award of the title, having achieved norms |
|
1.50 |
Two or more norms in events covering at least 27 games. |
|
1.51 |
If a norm is sufficient for more than one title, then it may be used as part of the application for both. |
|
1.52 |
To have achieved at some time or other a rating as follows:
GM
IM
WGM
WIM |
≥2500
≥2400
≥2300
≥2200 |
|
|
1.52a |
Such a rating need not be published. It can be obtained in the middle of a rating period, or even in the middle of a tournament. The player may then disregard subsequent results for the purpose of their title application. However the burden of proof then rests with the federation of the title applicant. It is recommended that players receive a certificate from the Chief Arbiter where they achieve the rating level during an event. Such a certificate should include a note of the date each game was played. Title applications based on unpublished ratings shall only be accepted by FIDE after agreement with the Rating Administrator and the Chairman of the Qualification Commission. Ratings in the middle of a period can be confirmed only after all tournaments for that period have been received and rated by FIDE. |
|
1.53 |
A title result shall be valid if it was obtained in accordance with the International Title Regulations prevailing at the time of the tournament when the norm was obtained. |
|
1.54 |
Title results remain valid for life. Thus there is no time restriction imposed on obtaining norms.

Title Tournament Certificates
The Chief Arbiter must prepare in quadruplicate certificates of title results achieved. These copies must be provided to theplayer, the player’s federation, the organizing federation and the FIDE Office. The player is recommended to ask the Chief Arbiter for the certificate before leaving the tournament.
The Chief Arbiter is responsible for that TRF file must be submitted to FIDE.
|
| 1.9 |
Submission of Reports on Title Tournaments |
|
1.91 |
Such tournaments must be registered as in 1.11.
|
|
1.92 |
The Chief Arbiter of a FIDE registered tournament is responsible for uploading the tournament report (TRF file) to the FIDE rating server not later than 30 days after the end of the event. |
|
1.93 |
If a tournament is not registered in advance with FIDE only the Federation of the country where the tournament was held may send in the results. The results shall only be included by agreement with the Chairman of the QC.
|
|
1.94 |
The end of a tournament is the date of the last round and the deadline for submitting the tournament shall be calculated from that date. |
|
1.95 |
If the Rating Administrator finds that the report is defective to the extent that it has to be returned for correction, the corrected report must be mailed to the Secretariat within four weeks of the date indicated by the Rating Administrator. Failure to do this will mean that the event was not reported for rating. |
|
1.96 |
Reports sent in more than six months late will not be accepted for rating or title purposes without the agreement of the chairman of the Qualification Commission. |
|
1.97 |
Federations submitting rating reports must submit all the games played in the tournament together with the report, if available. The games may be submitted either on paper or, preferably, in a standard chess database electronic format.
|
| 1.10 |
Application Procedure for Players’ Titles
|
|
1.10.1 |
Registered titles
The organiser sends the results to FIDE office. The FIDE office together with the QC Chairman creates a list of possible titles. The federations concerned are informed by the FIDE office. If the federation agrees to apply for the title, then the title is confirmed.
|
|
1.10.2 |
Titles by applications
The application must be sent and signed by the player’s federation. If the player’s federation refuses to apply, the player can appeal to FIDE and apply (and pay) for the title himself.
All the certificates have to be signed by the chief arbiter of the tournament and by the federation responsible for the event.
The tournaments have to be correctly reported to FIDE. A tournament must be rated before it can be regarded as valid for title norms.
Tournaments where GM results are possible must be ‘publicly’ open. At least the games of the tournament should be available during the tournament; it is recommended that the top games of the tournament are show as live games, possibly on the internet. After the tournament all the games have to be available to be checked.
