Fim

Fim is a term that can refer to multiple concepts depending on context. In English-language usage, FIM is most commonly seen as an acronym for the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme, the international governing body for motorcycle sport. The organization, founded in 1904, oversees rules, safety standards, and licensing for international motorcycle competitions and sanctions a wide range of disciplines.

The FIM coordinates with national federations and continental bodies to organize world championships and events across road racing, motocross, enduro, trials, and speedway. It works with the sport’s participants, governing committees, and the International Olympic Committee to promote safety, development, and integrity in motorcycle sport. While the commercial rights for some events are managed by separate entities, the FIM remains the official global sanctioning authority and sets the rules that shape competition and rider eligibility.

In other contexts, fim is the Portuguese word for “end,” used in everyday language and literature. It appears in phrases such as fim de semana (weekend) or fim da linha (end of the line). The capitalization form FIM may also be used as an acronym for other organizations or standards in different languages, depending on the context, though those uses are less widely known outside their specific fields.

If you were referring to a different meaning of fim or a different organization using the same acronym, providing additional context can help tailor the article to that sense.
