Th World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) have published a new version of the International Standard for Therapeutic Use Exemptions (ISTUE), which will come into force on 1 January 2019.

The revised template was approved by WADA’s Executive Committee (ExCo) at its 20 September 2018 meeting. It also falls in line with a number of templates that have been updated for use by Anti-Doping Organizations (ADOs) in carrying out their programs and activities.

The updated templates detail the personal information processed for anti-doping purposes, state the legal bases for such processing and specify the rights of participants in respect of their personal information.

These templates include:

  • Doping Control Form (and instructions)
  • Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE) Application Form
  • Athlete Information Notice
  • Athlete Consent Form
