How FIA is run

Governance and constitution

FIA is governed by its Congress, the Executive Committee and, for administrative and economic matters or urgent decisions in between meetings of the latter, by the Presidium – made of the FIA President and the six Vice-presidents.

The FIA Congress meets once every four years, the Executive Committee once a year and the Presidium whenever needed. The latter can be consulted any time by the Secretariat and does not necessarily need to meet physically, provided decisions can be taken at a distance. It must, however, report its decisions on urgent matters to the Executive Committee without undue delay. Any other decision taken by the Presidium must be brought to the attention of the next Executive Committee for approval. The work of the Federation is supported by the FIA Secretariat based in Brussels.

The countries currently sitting in the FIA Executive Committee are Japan, New-Zealand, India, Croatia, Morocco, Denmark, Argentina, and Turkey. The respective unions of FIA Presidium members also sit in the Executive Committee ,  together with any other FIA affiliate within the same country (these countries are the USA, Sweden, France, Uruguay, the UK, and Russia).
