Not every Multilateral Development Bank uses the same nationality rule.
Download the 2026 eligibility chart
The seven-page PDF gives you the rule for each institution, the eligible passport codes and a confidence grade showing how firmly the rule is supported. Appendix A contains the full long-form passport lists, and Appendix B spells out every country code.
How to use it:
1. Find your passport code in Appendix B.
2. Check the institutions marked open to any passport.
3. Check the member-country and regional lists that include your code.
4. Confirm the rule on the vacancy before applying, because recruitment rules and memberships can change.
We compiled this on 1 September 2026 from each institution’s own careers material. It covers staff roles, internships and young-professional programmes where the rules differ.
