FIDE result submission

Post by Roger de Coverly » Fri May 02, 2025 11:08 am

What are the reporting deadlines for submission of results for FIDE ratings?

The English Seniors which finished on 28th April is not included on the May 2025 list. By contrast it's in the 1st May ECF rating update alongside league matches played on the evening of the 30th.

The FIDE rating file was only received by FIDE on the 1st May https://ratings.fide.com/rated_tourname ... ountry=ENG so clearly too late to be included.

For the benefit of those reluctant to read the Rating Regulations for themselves.

"7.1.3 The closing date for tournaments for a list is 3 days before the date of the list; tournaments ending before or on that day may be rated on the list."

If the results had been reported on 28th, perhaps a tall order, they would have been in the May list. Bear in mind that, for reasons which have never been explained to me, the FIDE list appears on the last day of the previous month.

That's an easy one. It may be noon or thereabouts on the last day of the previous month for those of us living in Greenwich. But it's already the first day of the new month in Auckland!
