Each country, including the Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong, the Special Administrative Region of Macau, England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and Puerto Rico may be represented by a maximum of five (5) Teams, regardless of how many Teams from the same country register. In case more than five (5) Teams register from the same country, the Teams will have to participate in a Qualifying Round in order to determine the five (5) Teams that will participate in the International Round of the Competition.
The Qualifying Round may take the form of (1) a National/Regional Round or (2) a Problem-solving Question Round.
