This applying from July 2013 is totally unacceptable.

It doesn't say what the original licence fee is, though I infer it is €20

Re: REGULATIONS ON REGISTRATION & LICENSING OF PLAYERS
I assumed initial registration to be free since no fee is mentioned.
By my reading a 4NCL wildcard could cost an additional €120. (€50 'fine' to the 4NCL, a late registration fee of €50 and a reinstatement fee of €20, though the last of those may replace the middle one.)
It is also worrying that things like passport number will be visible to anyone.

Isn't this what the advocates of membership schemes want?LawrenceCooper wrote:

I thought compulsory individual membership of FIDE had been rejected by the General Assembly.
So what will the ECF's attitude be? Will it have to shut up and put up, like the attitude of leagues and county associations to the domestic version?

Too true.Sean Hewitt wrote:Never assume anything!
The FIDE action is, of course, against its own regulations.
FIDE RATING REGULATIONS (Qualification Commission)
Approved by the 1982 General Assembly andamended by the General Assemblies of 1984 through 2012.
0.1 The following regulations shall be altered only by the General Assembly upon recommendations of
the Qualification Commission (QC). Any such changes shall come into effect on 1st July of the year
following the decision by the General Assembly. For tournaments, such changes will apply to those
starting on or after that date.
5.2 Games played by players without a FIDE ID Number/License shall not count for rating for
themselves. Games played against them by Licensed Players shall be counted.
These should not apply until after GA approval and then only in the following year.
The pubished Rule 8 also has a circular reference to rules 8 & 9 above in the Regulations

Apart from the monetary amounts, these proposals were put forward eighteen months ago.Alex McFarlane wrote: These should not apply until after GA approval and then only in the following year.

Last time round, they were dropped without discussion.

Perhaps learning from their experience, the advocates of compulsory FIDE registration managed to get them adopted without anyone seemingly being aware that they were even a proposal.

What happens if you don't have a passport?
Re: REGULATIONS ON REGISTRATION & LICENSING OF PLAYERS
You'll need to get one, of course!
In fact I'm a little surprised FIDE wants passport details. These are readily forged. I'd have thought it more in keeping with their strategy of confirming FIDE's standing among players to require our bank account details

I for one do not want my passport number being handed over to FIDE. I'm only playing chess for crying out loud!

Re: REGULATIONS ON REGISTRATION & LICENSING OF PLAYERS
Maybe there is behind the scenes activity, but on the face of it the new regulations would require many entrants to events at the British Championships, next season's 4NCL, e2e4 and other events with internationally rated sections taking place after 1st July 2013 to have to provide their passport details and a photograph to the ECF to pass on to FIDE.Greg Breed wrote:I for one do not want my passport number being handed over to FIDE.

None of the affected bodies, or even the chess news sites like chessbase have yet commented.
