, in June 2022, members of the
ISU Council accepted a proposal to gradually increase the minimum age limit for senior competition to 17 years old beginning from the 2024–25 season. To avoid forcing skaters who had already competed in the senior category to return to juniors, the age limit remained unchanged during the 2022–23 season, before increasing to 16 years old during the 2023–24 season, and will increase to 17 years old during the 2024–25 season.
At the ISU Congress held in Las Vegas in June 2024, members of the ISU Council accepted a proposal to raise the junior age limit for females in pairs and ice dance to 21 and to raise the junior age limit for males in pairs to 23. A maximum age gap of seven years was instituted for junior pairs and ice dance teams.
