Qualified players for FIDE Grand Swiss and Women’s Grand Swiss

FIDE is pleased to announce the first batch of qualified players for the FIDE Grand Swiss and Women’s Grand Swiss, according to the FIDE Rating List for June 1st. Both events are to be held in Douglas, Isle of Man, from October 23 to November 6. The full list can be found below.

Qualified players can download their contracts from the following links, and return them signed to office@fide.com, with CC to alan@iomchess.com. They must also fill in their bank details in the form below and sent it together with the signed contract.

Contract template for participants in the FIDE Women’s Grand Swiss 

Form: Bank Account Details (both for open and women’s)

The deadline for players to confirm their participation is July 3, 12:00 CET. The organizing committee would appreciate it if those who plan to turn down the invitation could inform FIDE as soon as possible, so a reserve player can take their place. 

The deadline for reserve players is July 7, 16:00 CET, but they are encouraged to send their signed contracts at their earliest convenience.

You will note from the contract that it is the players’ responsibility to arrange their own accommodation for 14 nights - there is no “official hotel”.

You can find the full regulations on the FIDE Handbook:
