Details on FIFA Rulings
Olympic Matches
FIFA decided in 1999 that while all Olympic matches from 1908-1952 (bar those involving Great Britain or countries with a professional league who sent amateur squads, e.g. Austria in 1936) are full  internationals, all matches since the sixties are not at all recognised, while for the intermediate part additional analysis will be made.  Ten years later, no such analysis appears to have been forthcoming.  Most Eastern European and Scandinavian FAs (to whom  the issue is most relevant) have ignored the ruling, and the relevant countries have the totals as recognised by the responsible FAs included in the list.  Japan recognised most of its Olympic matches as official in 2015.
In January 2001, FIFA deleted all matches against FIFA XI's or continental  representations.  However, most FAs (including those of Brazil, England,  France and Italy) did not follow this ruling and keep the relevant matches  in their records.
The above list therefore ignores this FIFA ruling.

[ 3 ] Includes Daei's cap but not his goal on October 27, 2003, against       North Korea; the match was abandoned and later awarded 3-0 to Iran.  [ 4 ] Suker scored 45 goals in 69 matches for Croatia and 1 goal in 2        matches for (former) Yugoslavia.  [ 5 ] Previous official Polish records included unofficial matches.

[ 8 ] several players had Olympic matches (and possibly goals) deleted       from their records - or not.  [ 9 ] several players had matches (and possibly goals) against FIFA or        continental representations deducted - or not, see below .   [ 10 ] Ernest Wilimowski scored 21 goals in 22 matches for Poland and 13       goals in 8 matches for Germany.  [ 11 ] This total includes 1 goal in 1 match against an East Germany       olympic team in a match which the Bulgarian FA insists is official.  [ 12 ] Note that Tichy had a match vs Lebanon played in 1956 recognised        as official by the Hungarian FA in May 2002 (!).  He scored two goals        in that match.  [ 13 ] Note that Sarosi had a match vs Portugal played in 1933 recognised        as official by the Hungarian FA in May 2002 (!).  He did not score in       that match.  [ 14 ] This includes goals from Olympic and other matches recognised by       the Bulgarian FA (but not by FIFA) as official.
Details on FIFA Rulings
Olympic Matches
FIFA decided in 1999 that while all Olympic matches from 1908-1952 (bar those involving Great Britain or countries with a professional league who sent amateur squads, e.g. Austria in 1936) are full  internationals, all matches since the sixties are not at all recognised, while for the intermediate part additional analysis will be made.  Ten years later, no such analysis appears to have been forthcoming.  Most Eastern European and Scandinavian FAs (to whom  the issue is most relevant) have ignored the ruling, and the relevant countries have the totals as recognised by the responsible FAs included in the list.  Japan recognised most of its Olympic matches as official in 2015.
In January 2001, FIFA deleted all matches against FIFA XI's or continental  representations.  However, most FAs (including those of Brazil, England,  Frane and Italy) did not follow this ruling and keep the relevant matches  in their records.
The above list therefore ignores this FIFA ruling.
Potential Candidates for the Thirty Goals Club
The following players may have more than 30 goals for their country (numbers indicated are not yet official and under investigation) or may reach that total in the near future:
Keith Gumbs           [St. Kitts/Nevis]    47* Peter Ndlovu [Zimbabwe]           38 Faisel Al-Dekheel [ Kuwait ]             36 Mubarak Mustafa [Qatar]              34 Jassim Yacoub [ Kuwait ]             34 Mohamed Al-Enazi [Qatar]              33 Siu-Ki Chan [Hongkong]           30* Ricky Charles [Grenada]            30 Le Huynh Duc [Vietnam]            30 Pascal Feindouno [Guinea]             28?
