I don't have a national id due to my age, can I become a PRO member?

For players under 13 years old

Updated over 2 months ago

Yes! Our aim is to make chess available to everyone! FIDE Online Arena welcomes players of all genders and ages. To become a PRO member, click on "Register" and follow the instructions.

When you get to your fide id connection, you'll just need to ask your parent or trustee for a consent to the processing of personal data. This applies to all players younger than 13 years old and those who do not have a national id yet.

Please ask one of your parents or your trustee to write the following: "I (parent’s name) agree that World Chess will process my son's/daughter's (child’s name) personal data".

This should be written in handwriting and photographed and sent to us along with a picture of either the child’s or the parent's passports.

You can insert that picture right in the section that says "Drag your photo here"

We'll approve your fide id request or contact you if we need more info within 24 hours.
