FIFA Football Agent Exam Prep

The SkeletonBefore The Whistle

Before Player Status & Transfers puts you inside real eligibility and transfer scenarios, you need to know who holds power at FIFA and where a dispute actually gets sent. No voting thresholds, no amendment procedure — just the formation, not the whole playbook.

Who Answers To Whom

Three positions on the board. Tap each one to see the role — you'll see these names constantly once you're inside the regulations.

Tap a position to see the role
FIFA Statutes — Art. 10, 24, 25, 26, 61
FIFA Congress
  • All 211 member associations — one vote each (Art. 26)
  • The only body that can amend the Statutes, admit or expel a member (Art. 10), or designate the World Cup host (Art. 61)
  • Meets annually, plus extraordinary sessions when needed (Art. 25)
  • The President chairs Congress — but does not get a vote here (Art. 35)
FIFA Statutes — Art. 24, 33, 34, 35
FIFA Council
  • Strategic direction and oversight between Congress sessions (Art. 24, 34)
  • Issues the Procedural Rules that govern the Football Tribunal below it (Art. 48.2)
  • The President chairs it and holds one ordinary vote here — unlike at Congress (Art. 35)
  • Members are elected under Article 33 for four-year terms, capped at three terms whether consecutive or not (Art. 33.3)
FIFA Statutes — Art. 48
Football Tribunal
  • Where football-related disputes and regulatory applications are actually decided (Art. 48.1)
  • Operates under the Procedural Rules issued by the Council (Art. 48.2)
  • May pronounce sanctions under the Statutes and Disciplinary Code — enforcement runs through footballing sanctions, not automatic access to local courts (Art. 48.3)

Chairs The Match. Doesn't Always Play In It.

The single most-tested distinction in this module. Show both cards — the ruling isn't symmetrical, and the exam knows most people assume it is.

NO VOTE
No vote at Congress
He chairs it — runs the session, sets the agenda — but voting belongs entirely to the 211 member associations. Chairing and voting are two separate rights, and Congress only grants one of them.
