The Ranking System Below is a picture of the grades used by IOGKF-Singapore. Each grade shows a certain level of ability and dedication. Grades that are achieved are earned by personal effort, and are rewarded with more knowledge. All Kyu and Dan grades are certified, with Black Belt Certificates coming from the International Honbu. |

| Special Circumstances
Under certain special circumstances, some junior Karateka who are not yet of an age to be graded according to the official IOGKF syllabus may be given a special belt as recognition of their efforts as growing Karateka. Those under the age of six will be graded with stripes on their White Belt, to a maximum of 8 red stripes before receiving the special belt. They may then grade to a maximum of 8 further red stripes before becoming eligible for 10th Kyu in the General stream. For these juniors, the focus is on fun and fitness, while learning manners, and positive social interaction. |
