The International Sporting Code (ISC) is a set of rules, which are valid for all auto racing events - as long as these aren't independent of the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), which sets these rules, such as NASCAR. Motorcycle racing is also exempt since the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) is responsable for this sport, not the FIA.

The ISC consists of 17 chapters and several appendixes. It contains definitions, general principles, and regulations, as well as rules for race organizers, contenders, racers, and official referees. As the sport of motor racing is very hierarchic, the ISC also determines the rules of national racing federations.
