FIS announced today, 12 December, an updated list of athletes and support personnel of Russian or Belarusian nationality who have been granted the status of AIN and, therefore, are cleared to participate in FIS events provided that they formally accept the conditions associated with the AIN status. These athletes will be bound by all existing FIS rules, including participation quotas.

Since 2 December, athletes and support personnel have been individually contacting FIS to request AIN status. Each application is submitted to a thorough review process to ensure compliance with the FIS Individual Neutral Athlete Policy. This process requires an independent third party to carry out due diligence checks, generating a report that is the basis for a decision by the FIS Individual Neutral Athlete Eligibility Review Panel.

Over the course of the upcoming days and weeks, as more eligibility reviews are conducted and more decisions are made, FIS will publish updated versions of the AIN list.
