All referees affiliated with FIFA have a designated referee grade. The grade indicates the qualification of the referee to officiate at various levels of local, national and international soccer competition.

CHANGED in 2019/2020 - Prior referee grades 7, 8 and 9 are now referred to as Grassroots Referees. Prior referee grades 5 and 6 are now referred to as Regional Referees.
