II. MEMBERSHIP Article 14 Suspension 1 The Congress is responsible for suspending a Member. The Executive Committee may, however, suspend a Member that seriously and repeatedly violates its obligations as a Member with immediate effect. The suspension shall last until the next Congress, unless the Executive Committee has lifted it in the meantime. 2 A suspension shall be confirmed at the next Congress by a threequarter majority of the votes taken. If it is not confirmed, the suspension is automatically lifted. 3 A suspended Member shall lose its membership rights. Other Members may not entertain sporting contact with a suspended Member. The Disciplinary Committee may impose further sanctions. 4 Members which do not participate in at least two of all FIFA competitions over a period of four consecutive years shall be suspended from voting at the Congress until they have fulfilled their obligations in this respect. Article 15 Expulsion 12 1 The Congress may expel a Member: (a) if it fails to fulfil its financial obligations towards FIFA; or (b) if it seriously violates the Statutes, regulations, decisions or the Code of Ethics of FIFA; or (c) if it loses the status of an Association representing Association Football in its country. 2 The presence of an absolute majority of Members entitled to vote at the Congress is necessary for an expulsion to be valid, and the motion for expulsion must be adopted by a three-quarter majority of the votes taken.
Article 16 Resignation 1 A Member may resign from FIFA with effect from the end of a calendar year. Notice of resignation must reach the general secretariat no later than six months before the end of the calendar year and be sent by registered letter. 2 The resignation is not valid until the Member wishing to resign has fulfilled its financial obligations towards FIFA and its other Members. Article 17 Bodies 1 A Member’s bodies shall be either elected or appointed in that Association. A Member’s statutes shall provide for a procedure that guarantees the complete independence of the election or appointment. 2 Any Member’s bodies that have not been elected or appointed in compliance with the provisions of par. 1, even on an interim basis, shall not be recognised by FIFA. 3 Decisions passed by bodies that have not been elected or appointed in compliance with par. 1 shall not be recognised by FIFA. 13
