nv - the code to which r2c refers has to do with matches and competitions organized by FIFA, not to every match sanctioned by FIFA.

I sure hope that there are not referees imposing bans based upon info like this. As I mentioned before, this is a reason why the referee should stick to managing the match itself, and not get involved in the administrative side of the game. If a player has a pass, he plays. If you suspect he is playing under false pretenses, by all means report it, but before we ban a kid from playing, we better make sure we are right!

here is the link
