Official Ticket Resale Platform

1.
Can I resell my tickets to somebody else?
.1

If you or any of your guest(s) cannot attend a match, from 4 October 2022 and until the end of the tournament you can put some or all your tickets up for resale on the FIFA Official Ticket Resale Platform. Original ticket purchasers are able to resale ticket(s) through their FIFA Ticketing account, accessible at FIFA.com/tickets, subject to the applicable conditions stated in the General Public Ticket Resale Policy available at FIFA.com/tickets. The resale is possible up to the day and kick-off time of the respective match. Should you have purchased tickets over the counter at the FIFA Main Ticketing Centre (Doha Exhibition & Convention Center – DECC) or at the Ticketing Centre (Ali Bin Hamad Al Attiyah Arena - ABHA Arena in Al Sadd), the original ticket purchaser will need to return the paper tickets to the FIFA Main Ticketing Centre or the Ticketing Centre in Doha, prior to being eligible for submission to the resale platform on FIFA.com/tickets through their FIFA Ticketing account, subject to the applicable conditions stated in the General Public Ticket Resale Policy available at FIFA.com/tickets.
If the ticket has not been successfully resold 20 minutes after the kick-off of the respective match, it will continue to be available for the original ticket purchaser own use in the same ticket format as it was originally purchased. For mobile tickets (i.e. tickets purchased online), the original ticket purchaser will be required to reassign unsold tickets to themselves and any guests via their FIFA ticketing account for the tickets to be available through the Official FIFA World Cup 2022™ mobile ticketing application. With respect to paper tickets (i.e. tickets purchased over the counter), the original ticket purchaser will need to attend the FIFA Main Ticketing Centre (Doha Exhibition & Convention Center – DECC) or the Ticketing Centre (Ali Bin Hamad Al Attiyah Arena - ABHA Arena in Al Sadd) to obtain new paper tickets for the unsold tickets. This means that, particularly in cases where a ticket needs to be reissued as paper tickets, it may not be possible for the original ticket purchaser to use the ticket to enter the stadium.
That is why original ticket purchasers are strongly encouraged to withdraw a ticket from the resale platform in sufficient time prior to the respective match if he/she subsequently intends to retain the ticket for his own use. If the ticket(s) has been originally purchased online on FIFA.com/tickets, the original ticket purchaser will be required to reassign withdrawn tickets to themselves and any guests via his/her FIFA ticketing account. For ticket(s) originally purchased over the counter, the original ticket purchaser will need to attend the FIFA Main Ticketing Centre (Doha Exhibition & Convention Center – DECC) or the Ticketing Centre (Ali Bin Hamad Al Attiyah Arena - ABHA Arena in Al Sadd) to obtain new paper tickets for the withdrawn tickets.
In such cases that a ticket is not resold on the resale platform or if a ticket is not withdrawn in sufficient time prior to the respective match for the ticket to grant access to the match stadium, the original ticket purchaser will not be entitled to a refund or any other form of compensation from FIFA Ticketing.
If the original ticket purchaser wishes to submit their own ticket to the resale platform, they must submit all other tickets purchased by them for the same match. Guests are not permitted to attend any matches without the original ticket purchaser. If not all of the tickets are successfully resold on the resale platform, you may still attend the given match.
Please note that FIFA Ticketing makes no guarantee that any ticket submitted to the resale platform will be successfully resold. FIFA Ticketing will determine in its sole discretion when a ticket submitted to the resale platform by an original ticket purchaser is ultimately posted on the resale platform for potential sale to a resale ticket purchaser. FIFA Ticketing is not responsible for any costs or expenses incurred by an original ticket purchaser resulting from their ticket not being successfully resold on the resale platform.
Original ticket purchasers also had the opportunity to submit some or all their tickets up for resale on the FIFA Official Ticket Resale Platform during the first ticket resale period that took place from 2 August 2022 at 11:00 CEST / 12:00 (midday) Doha time to 16 August 2022 at 11:00 CEST / 12:00 (midday) Doha time. Tickets submitted to the Resale Platform that have not been successfully resold by 16 August 2022 at 11:00 CEST / 12:00 (midday) Doha time remain available to the original ticket purchaser in their ticketing account. To retain them for their own or their guests' use, they must reassign them again.
You may not, whether physically or online, offer for sale, sell, offer at auctions, give away or otherwise transfer or attempt to transfer, or engage a third party to facilitate or solicit offers for the transfer of tickets under any circumstances, including any use or attempted use of tickets for advertising, promotions, incentive programmes, sweepstakes, contests, giveaways or raffles or as part of hotel, flight, hospitality or travel packages, or other commercial purposes, except as expressly authorised in writing by FIFA Ticketing, or as permitted by the Ticket Terms of Use.  

Tickets that have been impermissibly transferred are not valid and may be cancelled at any time without notice. Any actual or attempted transfer of any tickets in violation of the Ticket Terms of Use may result in civil and criminal fines and penalties.

FIFA Ticketing restricts the transfer of tickets for reasons including: 

      (i)    Match security 

      (ii)    Consumer protection

      (iii)    Avoidance of counterfeit tickets

      (iv)    Protection of a fair pricing scheme
