FILA is governed by a Congress made up of representatives from each of the 174 national wrestling federations (the nation's governing body for wrestling). National federations that at least govern the two Olympic wrestling styles are admitted as affiliate members. Those national federations exclusively govern traditional wrestling and other styles can be admitted as associated members. Up to three representatives from each federation may attend the conference, and only one may vote. The Congress meets at least every two years, usually during the Olympic games or during the World Championships that meet between Olympic games.

The FILA Bureau is composed of the president, four vice presidents, the Secretary General, 12 other elected members (with two seats reserved for women), the Presidents of the five Continental Committees, and an Honorary President who advises but has no vote (currently, Milan Ercegan). Honorary members are also in turn elected to the Bureau but do not vote. The President, the Vice Presidents, and the Secretary General make up the Executive Committee.

No two members represent the same nationality (exceptions may be made for the President, the two female members, the Continental Committee Presidents, and the Honorary President). [5]

The FILA President manages the day-to-day affairs of the organization. The President represents FILA at international meetings, before the International Olympic Committee, and before the general public.
