Dear colleagues, International and FIDE arbiters,
According to the new Regulation B.06.4 FIDE Regulations for the Appointment of Arbiters in World Events (effective from July 20th 2023), the FIDE Arbiters’ Commission is proud release a new process for the selection of arbiters in the Panels (Green, Blue, Red and Yellow) for the next cycle 2026-2027.
The call of Interest for Panels of arbiters and World Events 2026-2027 is open for one month, from August 28th 2025 to September 27th 2025, 23:59 CEST for all FIDE Arbiters and International Arbiters with a valid FIDE license.
All arbiters who wish to officiate in World Events have to submit their application via Chamilo* (https://arb-learn.fide.com/).
