A catalog of common, intermediate and well‐documented (CIWD) HLA‐A, ‐B, ‐C, ‐DRB1, ‐DRB3, ‐DRB4, ‐DRB5, ‐DQB1 and ‐DPB1 alleles has been compiled from over 8 million individuals using data from 20 unrelated hematopoietic stem cell volunteer donor registries. Individuals are divided into seven geographic/ancestral/ethnic groups and data are summarized for each group and for the total population. P (two‐field) and G group assignments are divided into one of four frequency categories: common (≥1 in 10 000), intermediate (≥1 in 100 000), well‐documented (≥5 occurrences) or not‐CIWD. Overall 26% of alleles in IPD‐IMGT/HLA version 3.31.0 at P group resolution fall into the three CIWD categories. The two‐field catalog includes 18% (n = 545) common, 17% (n = 513) intermediate, and 65% (n = 1997) well‐documented alleles. Full‐field allele frequency data are provided but are limited in value by the variations in resolution used by the registries. A recommended CIWD list is based on the most frequent category in the total or any of the seven geographic/ancestral/ethnic groups. Data are also provided so users can compile a catalog specific to the population groups that they serve. Comparisons are made to three previous CWD reports representing more limited population groups. This catalog, CIWD version 3.0.0, is a step closer to the collection of global HLA frequencies and to a clearer view of HLA diversity in the human population as a whole.

One nucleotide substitution in codon 73 of HLA‐A*01:01:01:01 results in a novel allele, HLA‐A*01:211.

Nucleotide substitutions in codon 38 of HLA‐DQB1*05:03:01:01 result in a novel allele, HLA‐DQB1*05:66:01

One nucleotide substitution in codon 38 of HLA‐DQB1*06:01:01:01 results in a novel allele, HLA‐DQB1*06:132.

One nucleotide substitution in codon 87 of HLA‐DQB1*05:02:01:01 results in a novel allele, HLA‐DQB1*05:116.
