The absence of Jayco-AlUla and Liv-AlUla-Jayco from the initial list of teams applying for a men's UCI WorldTour licence and Women's WorldTour licence in 2026 is due to missing bank guarantees, according to an article published on Escape Collective.

Part of the process of registration requires a variety of key financial documents to be lodged with the UCI by October 15, and on October 20 the list of teams which had submitted essential documents was revealed by the UCI. The Australian-based men's and women's teams, which have been operating since 2012, were notable absences.
