Article 112 - Official Calendar

1. The Secretary General approves the official Calendar for the following year, unless the
relevant Sport Rules provide other deadlines.
2. The dates for FEI Events shall be published as soon as possible after allocation.
3. The Secretary General shall have the authority to remove any Competition and/or Event
from the Calendar if justified circumstances relating to a Competition or the Event are
established.
4. Applications or modifications for CIs shall be sent by the relevant NF to the Secretary General
as early as possible in order that they arrive at the latest by 1 October unless an earlier date
is specified by the relevant Sport Rules or a different date is specified in writing by the
Secretary General. Only one (1) date may be proposed for each Event. In the event a CI is
part of a Series, the application should indicate this information. Applications for CIs that
arrive after the deadline mentioned above are considered as Late Date Applications or
modifications and may only be considered by the FEI at least twelve (12) weeks prior to the
Event, unless there is a Force Majeure event.
5. Application and modifications for CIMs shall be sent to the Secretary General as early as
possible, and no later than four (4) weeks prior to the commencement of the Event.
6. Prior to the Decision on the Calendar, the Secretary General may propose modifications to
the dates requested by applicants in order to establish an improved Calendar.
7. For Late Date Application and/or modification for higher level Events as defined in the
relevant Rules and received after the deadline, only a NF and/or OC of another higher level
event that may be deemed to be affected by the acceptance of such Late Date Application
and/or modification may be provided the opportunity to give relevant information to the
Secretary General. After an evaluation of the information received (if any) and the Late Date
Application or modification request (as the case may be), the Secretary General shall have
the right to accept or reject the Late Date Application or modification. Any such Decision by
the Secretary General shall be duly motivated.
8. Priority of FEI Championships and other high level Events may be regulated for each
Discipline in the Sport Rules.

Official Calendar or approved by the Secretary General.
