How does national chess rating work

So a few question:

1) If you participate in a FIDE rated tournament, does it count towards your national rating?

2) Is the Opposite true?

Hi,

National rating, is the rating your nation's chess federation uses, so most countries have their own type of rating. FIDE rating, however, is the accepted "official" world rating system. Gaining/losing one will not affect the other.

Ok thanks

Depends on your federation.

For example, under US Chess Federation rules, a FIDE rated tourney in the US is almost always going to be rated under both rating systems. 

However, if a US Chess member plays in a FIDE rated tourney that is not US Chess rated, it doesn't normally count towards the US Chess rating. A player can ask the federation to rate those events, but once the option is chosen, all such events get rated (can't pick and choose events).

Thanks a lot

May I ask if you have an idea about CFLD? Lebanese federation? Probably not but just trying

If not I guess I can just ask around

You would need to them but a lot will depend if they have their own rating system.

Can someone tell me how does the Taiwan chess rating system work?.

Sometimes tournaments (mainly classical ones) will have both (for example) a USCF and a FIDE rating change for the players. This doesn't always happen though

National chess ratings are determined based on players' performance in rated tournaments using algorithms like the Elo rating system. Points are gained or lost depending on the outcome of matches against other rated players with adjustments made for the strength of the opponents.
