Reporting obligation
In accordance with previous decisions of the Players’ Status Chamber, Member Associations that have been granted a limited exemption are required to report to FIFA through TMS at regular intervals. Each report must describe the Member Association’s activities under the exemption, including the players registered on that basis and any subsequent domestic or international transfers of those players.
When your Member Association is granted a limited exemption, the interval at which it must report its activities under the limited exemption is clearly indicated.
Prepare the report
The limited exemption report should be drafted in Excel, saved as a PDF (not scanned as a PDF) and then uploaded to TMS to facilitate reporting on the registration of minor players. A template of this document is available in Excel format in the Document library under Templates.
