Anti-Doping Rules for Milano Cortina 2026

WADA Publishes IOC Anti-Doping Rules for the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has posted the International Olympic Committee's (IOC) anti-doping rules, which will be in effect for the Milano Cortina d'Ampezzo 2026 Winter Olympic Games, on its official website.

The IOC, as a signatory of the World Anti-Doping Code, developed and approved these rules. They fully comply with the 2021 edition of the Code and WADA's International Standards, including the current List of Prohibited Substances and Methods.

These anti-doping rules will start when the Olympic Village opens and remain in effect until the closing ceremony of the Games. During this period, all athletes will undergo testing according to procedures set by the International Testing Agency (ITA). The IOC has delegated some of its authority for organizing and overseeing doping control during the Games to this independent body.

The Winter Olympic Games in Milano and Cortina d'Ampezzo are scheduled to take place from February 6 to 22, 2026.
