International Arbiter: (from Wikipedia)
In Chess, International Arbiter is a title awarded by FIDE to
individuals deemed capable of acting as Arbiter in important
Chess matches (the arbiters are responsible for ensuring the
rules and laws of Chess are adhered to). The title was
established in 1951.
Requirements for the title to be awarded are detailed in section
B.01.2.1 of the FIDE Handbook. As well as thorough knowledge of
the laws of Chess and a proved impartiality, they include the
ability to speak a FIDE-approved language and previous
experience as arbiter in important tournaments.
Some individuals have had careers as strong players and later
become International Arbiters. Notable examples include:
Albéric O'Kelly de Galway, Grandmaster who was third
correspondence Chess world champion before becoming an
International Arbiter in 1962 and acting as Chief Arbiter at the
1966 and 1969 over-the-board World Championship matches;
Lothar Schmid, Grandmaster who finished joint second with the
then World Champion Tigran Petrosian at Bamberg 1968 and was
also a strong correspondence player before becoming an
International Arbiter in 1975 and acting as Chief Arbiter in the
1972, 1978 and 1986 World Championship matches.
Gideon Stċhlberg, Grandmaster who was Sweden's top player for
many years and refereed several of Mikhail Botvinnik's world
championship matches.
