The international umbrella organisation for the Icelandic horse is called FEIF (Federation of Icelandic Horse Associations) representing Icelandic horse associations from 23 countries in Europe, North America and Australia and New Zealand.

a single set of rules

 FEIF hosts meetings where important issues concerning the international Icelandic horse community are discussed and decisions are made. This includes rules and regulations for competitions, guidelines for judges, education, youth work, and much more. Within the FEIF countries there is a single set of rules for breeding and competition, which is quite unique in the horse world in general.
