The International Mixed Martial Arts Federation (IMMAF) was founded on 29 February 2012 as the international governing body for amateur mixed martial arts (MMA). Registered as a non-profit organization under Swedish law, IMMAF serves as a democratic hub for national MMA federations and supports the growth of regulation and sport safety globally by aiding countries in the formation of federations where none exist.^[3] IMMAF launched with support of market leader, the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).^[4]^[5]^[6] The UFC is among promotions sanctioned by federations under the IMMAF umbrella in countries that include Brazil and Sweden.^[7]^[8]^[9]^[10]

IMMAF now is in Switzerland (Roveredo via Toveda n. 3) near the Swiss Mixed Martial Arts Federation, which oversaw the transfer in all administrative aspects. In 2023, IMMAF extended its partnership with Brave Combat Federation to expedite the development of the sport at grassroots levels with financial and operational support.^[11]

After the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine the IMMAF suspended the memberships of the Russian MMA Union and the Federation of Hand-to-Hand Fighting & MMA of Belarus. It barred the Russian and Belarusian federations from participating in all IMMAF Championships, and banned the organization of IMMAF events in Russia and Belarus.^[12]

Amateur vs. professional level athletes

The IMMAF considers an athlete to be on a professional level and thus not eligible for participation if he or she meets any one of the following criteria:

holds a Pro MMA or professional combat sports license issued by any sanctioning body
is under contract with a professional MMA or professional combat sport promotion
has received a fee for participating in an MMA or professional combat sports match
has participated in a professional MMA match under the Unified Rules of MMA or equivalent in the country where the bout took place
has competed against an opponent with a Pro MMA record at the time the bout took place
has a professional MMA fight record published anywhere
National amateur criteria do not hold for IMMAF international competition if it does not conform to the above stipulations

Suspension

A contestant who was knocked out as a result of a blow to the head, or whose match was stopped by the judge because of several tough blows to the head which have made him/her defenseless and unable to continue, shall be suspended from competition and sparring matches.
