Standard Elo ratings, rapid Elo ratings and blitz Elo ratings

Official published chess player ratings from the International Chess Federation.

Get player ratings

Get player ratings

Get a chess player's current published standard/classical, rapid and blitz Elo from their official FIDE profile using a full player name, FIDE ID or official profile link. Names must match the complete official name (either surname-first or given-name-first); ambiguous names require a FIDE ID. Unmatched names return null fields. Unpublished ratings are null. The rating list month is the latest monthly history row, represented by the first day of that month, or null when no row is shown. These are published FIDE ratings, not live ratings.
