It is the pilot’s responsibility to make sure he/she has qualified

To avoid unnecessary travel, expenses and disappointment in the event a pilot entry is rejected due to not meeting the qualification criteria, we suggest that all pilots and all NAC or National Association/Federation check the qualification criteria well before the competition.

Competition organisers should have a signed declaration on the entry form that the pilot meets the qualification criteria.

Exemptions

All exemptions applications must be made in writing by the pilots NAC, with supporting evidence of the pilot’s international competition history. This should be received by the CIVL Competitions Coordinator at least one month before the Championship.

Contact the CIVL Competitions Coordinator

The qualification criteria can be found in the Section 7C of FAI Sporting Code (2.11)

If the competitor's country issues pilot licences for paragliding, the pilot must hold a valid licence; this should be equivalent to IPPI 4 standard as a minimum.
