National Identities at WRTC 2026
The WRTC 2026 Organising Committee would like to clarify the topic of national identification for the WRTC 2026 event. The 2023 event held in Italy recognised the changing situation around the world with regard to national identification and implemented a balanced approach given a number of factors.
After very careful review, and consultation with the WRTC Sanctioning Committee, noting that the qualification process is by Qualification Area (not DXCC), the OC decision is to maintain the approach of Italy 2022 (2023). No national identities, flags or emblems are permitted at WRTC 2026 and teams enter as their QA or given team name as given on the WRTC 2026 website at the below link.
