The Federación Internacional de Pádel (FIP) (English: International Padel Federation) is the global governing body for the fast-growing sport of padel. Founded in 1991 in Madrid by representatives from the Argentinian, Spanish, and Uruguayan Padel Federations, the FIP is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting padel worldwide.

One of its key responsibilities is organizing the prestigious Padel World Championship for both male and female players. The FIP has recently taken a more prominent role in the professional padel circuit.
