Recognized competition disciplines include; dressage, combined driving, endurance riding, eventing, para-equestrianism, reining, show jumping, and vaulting. It also recognizes tent pegging and horseball as regional equestrian disciplines. It does not govern or provide rules for horse racing or polo. It has organized the FEI World Equestrian Games quadrenially (every four years) since 1990.

The FEI headquarters are in Lausanne, Switzerland.
