The Call of Interest was opened for one month, from August 28<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;to September 27<sup>th<\/sup>, 2025. In total 152 Arbiters with IA-A and IA-B categories responded to the Call for Interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The panels were formed following the FIDE Regulations, particularly B.06.4 FIDE Regulations for the Appointment of Arbiters in World Events (effective July 20<sup>th<\/sup>, 2023) and selection criteria. These selection criteria were applied by a team of voting members, who used consensus as a decision- making method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each voting member received a list of 152 arbiters (arbiters Category A and B who participated in the Call of Interest for World Events 2026-2027) and voted for every other arbiter on it (on a scale of 130 points to 1 point). The second step was to consult all four Continental Organisations for their feedback, FIDE Global Strategy Commission, and FIDE Events Commission, before starting the composition of Panels by the FIDE Arbiters\u2019 Commission Councillors. Voting members discussed the draft with the Team of Consultants so they will be able to present the final version of the List of arbiters for the green, blue, red, and yellow panels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Arbiters\u2019 Commission believes that this list was made in the best interests of FIDE and arbiters worldwide. Moreover, we expect that its content and integrity will be proved over the following two years when these arbiters complete their duties at FIDE World Events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ivan
