Officials toured sites in Japan, with further trips planned to bidding countries South Korea, Australia, the Netherlands/Belgium, Russia, England, Spain/Portugal, Qatar and the United States.
Japan, Qatar, Korea Republic, the USA and Australia are targeting the 2022 tournament, with Europe expected to land the 2018 event.
Fifa will make a decision in December with regard to both the 2018 and 2022 tournaments, partly based on a report they will receive from Chilean football federation president Harold Mayne-Nicholls, who is overseeing the current visits.
