International Academy for Genealogical and Heraldic Studies

The International Academy for Genealogical and Heraldic Studies (IAGHS) is a private non-governmental autonomous research organisation founded in 2015 whose stated purpose is to keep genealogical records register of noble families and to publish annually the authoritative Golden Register of Nobility, to determine the legitimacy of orders of chivalry as, since the late 19th century, a number of purported orders had been operating, bestowing (and often selling) chivalric and noble titles and to publish annually the updated, irreproachable, scientific and widely accepted Golden Register of Orders of Chivalry. These registers are not closed, nor final and will always be reviewed in the light of new evidence or changing circumstances.
