With the new season commencing, the ITIA has published the updated rules for 2026, effective 1 January 2026.

The 2026 Tennis Anti-Corruption Program (TACP) and 2026 Tennis Anti-Doping Programme (TADP) are now available to read and download, in full, on our website and app.

There are minimal changes to both programmes heading into 2026, but a summary of substantive changes is now available to read by clicking here.

A key component of the TADP is WADA’s Prohibited List, which is updated every year and applies to all code-compliant sports. While changes to the List for 2026 are not significant from a tennis perspective, an article detailing the updates is available here.

The ITIA is committed to ensuring that all relevant personnel – including players, officials, support staff and medical practitioners – have a strong understanding of the Prohibited List.

Alongside the summary of changes above, we update our resources, briefings and education sessions to ensure everyone covered by our rules can access the right information and understands their responsibilities.

As part of this process, each year we produce one-page, easily accessible summaries of the rules for both of tennis’ integrity programmes, namely the TACP Explained and TADP Explained.

Members of the tennis family seeking further understanding of any of the rule changes, or requiring practical support from the ITIA, can make contact with us directly via our app, through direct message on social media, or by using our secure WhatsApp messaging service, The Line.
