ABOUT THE IIHF MEMBER STRUCTURE
The International Ice Hockey Federation has 83 member national associations. There are two categories of IIHF membership.
The first category is IIHF Full Member. These are the nations that have their own, independent, ice hockey association, separate from a winter sports federation, and they participate annually in the IIHF championship program.
The second category is IIHF Associate Member. These are nations that either do not have fully independent national associations or who have independent national associations, but participate to only a limited extent in IIHF championships.
Only full members have voting rights at the IIHF Congresses.
Below is a list of the member national associations. Click on each nation to learn more about hockey in that country, or visit the country link at the top of this page.
