Feb 23, 2026·Inside FIS:format(webp))
FIS announced today, 22 April 2026, an updated list of athletes and support personnel of Russian or Belarusian nationality who have been granted the status of AIN.
Any measures regarding the Individual Neutral Athletes (AIN) program for the 2026/27 season will be decided upon between Spring and Summer 2026.
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.
