Who has the authority to impose sanctions on agents?

The FIFA Disciplinary Committee holds the authority to impose sanctions on agents. This committee is responsible for ensuring that the rules and regulations of FIFA, including the FIFA Agents Regulations, are upheld. Sanctions may arise from various breaches of conduct, such as violations of the duties expected of agents, unethical behavior, or misconduct that harms the integrity of the sport.

The involvement of players, clubs, and fans—including their ability to influence or suggest actions—does not extend to the formal authority to impose sanctions. Players may report violations or express concerns about an agent's behavior, but it is the Disciplinary Committee that investigates these claims and determines appropriate sanctions. Similarly, clubs can take actions like terminating contracts with agents or reporting them, but again, the official sanctioning authority lies specifically with the FIFA Disciplinary Committee. Fans may have their opinions and reactions, but they do not have any formal role in the disciplinary processes governed by FIFA.
