FIFA adopts temporary employment and registration rules to address several issues in relation to war in Ukraine

Following the escalation of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which has led to an ongoing and distressing humanitarian crisis, the Bureau of the FIFA Council has decided - in coordination with UEFA and after consultation with various stakeholders - to temporarily amend the Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players (RSTP) in order to provide legal certainty and clarity on a number of matters.

The principles are set out in the form of a temporary annexe to the RSTP (Annexe 7) entitled "Temporary rules addressing the exceptional situation deriving from the war in Ukraine".
