Registration

 

Registration for the amateur events during the 2020 Tata Steel Chess Tournament is open. You can find more information on the different amateur events on this page. Please note that any information below might be subject to change.

All non-Dutch participants need a FIDE-ID to register. If you do not know yours, you can find it here: http://ratings.fide.com/ , by entering your full family name (if necessary beginning with de; la;  van der; etc., etc.). Dutch participants can also register with their KNSB ID. If you do not have such an ID, contact your Chess Federation to apply for it.

 

Please note:

The weekend three-round event and the nine-round event get overbooked every year. Therefore participants are not allowed to enter for both events. If entries are made to both events, the entry in the nine-round event will be cancelled. The weekday three-round event may be combined with any other event. 

When you are not present on time your entry may be cancelled.  When you are delayed you can call +31 (0)251 37 45 41 (reception desk De Moriaan) or +31 (0)6 - 244 77 636  (tournament telephone).
