For new countries
If your country would like to start participation in the IChO, please contact the next organizer and the Steering Committee preferably before November preceding an olympiad.
Please fill out the questionnaire  prepared for this occasion and send it with your application. It is encouraged that your country organize a national olympiad to select the IChO team.
The regulations require two consecutive years of observing without students in order to ensure commitment and familiarity with the procedures of the IChO.
