International Arbiter

International Arbiter is a title awarded by the world governing body of chess, FIDE, to individuals deemed capable of acting as arbiter in important events (the arbiters are responsible for ensuring the rules and laws of chess are adhered to). The title was established in 1951.

Requirements for the title to be awarded are detailed in section B.01.2.1 of the FIDE Handbook. As well as thorough knowledge of the laws of chess and a proved impartiality, they include the ability to speak a FIDE-approved language and previous experience as arbiter in important tournaments.

Some individuals have had careers as strong players and later become International Arbiters. Notable examples include:

Alb�ric O�Kelly de Galway, Grandmaster who was third correspondence chess world champion before becoming an International Arbiter in 1962 and acting as Chief Arbiter at the 1966 and 1969 over-the-board World Championship matches;
Lothar Schmidt, Grandmaster who finished joint second with the then world chess champion Tigran Petrosian at Bamberg 1968 and was also a strong correspondence player before becoming an International Arbiter in 1975 and acting as Chief Arbiter in the 1972, 1978 and 1986 World Championship matches.
Gideon St�hlberg, Grandmaster who was Sweden�s top player for many years and refereed several of Mikhail Botvinnik�s world championship matches.
