Payment of Sums of Money
1. Anyone who fails to pay another person (such as a player, a coach or a club) a sum of money in full, even though instructed to do so by a body of FIFA:
a) will be sanctioned with a minimum fi ne of CHF 5,000 for failing to comply with the instructions issued by the body that imposed the payment (cf. art. 44 of the FIFA Statutes);
b) will be given a fi nal time limit by the judicial bodies of FIFA in which to settle the debt;
c) if it is a club, it will be warned and threatened with deduction of points or relegation to the next lower division if it has not paid by the fi nal time limit.
2. If the club disregards the fi nal time limit, the body will request the national association concerned to implement the threat.
3. If points are deducted, they shall be proportionate to the amount owed.
