Frequently Asked Questions
The FIFA Congress makes the decision through a common vote. A smaller group called the FIFA Council looks at the bids first. It can pick the top three bids before the Congress votes.
Confederation rotation means that only certain regions can bid to host the World Cup at a given time. This is based on which regions hosted it recently. The idea is to make sure that all regions get a turn. It can also limit the options such that only one bid is left.
Yes, they can. For example, the 2026 World Cup will be hosted by Canada, Mexico and the United States. Morocco, Portugal and Spain will host the 2030 World Cup. Some special matches will also be played in Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay.
FIFA looks at how good the infrastructure is, how much money can be made, what the plan is for the event, how sustainable it is and how well human rights are respected. They also do a risk assessment. If a bid does not meet the requirements, it can be disqualified before it even gets to a vote.
After the scandal, FIFA made some changes. They gave the power to make decisions to the FIFA Congress instead of just a small group. They also made the rules for bidding public. They release reports on how each bid is evaluated. Finally, they make the results of the vote public so everyone can see what happened.
