List of International Masters (Germany)
The list of international masters (Germany) lists all chess players who are eligible to play for the German Chess Federation or who were eligible to play for this or the German Chess Federation of the GDR and who have been awarded the title of International Master (IM) as the highest award of the World Chess Federation FIDE to date . It does not include players who, in addition to the IM title, also have the title of grandmaster or who are registered as German citizens for foreign chess associations. Furthermore, correspondence chess IMs as well as holders of the IM title of women (WIM) are not included. The sharp increase in the number of titleholders from around the mid-1980s is striking.
