Allocation ranking
Toronto is in the #3 position in the MLS Allocation Ranking. The allocation ranking is the mechanism used to determine which MLS club has first priority to acquire a U.S. National Team player who signs with MLS after playing abroad, or a former MLS player who returns to the league after having gone to a club abroad for a transfer fee. A ranking can be traded, provided that part of the compensation received in return is another club's ranking.

International roster spots
It is believed that Toronto FC has 9 international roster spots. Each club in Major League Soccer is allocated 8 international roster spots, which can be traded. Toronto FC acquired an additional spot from San Jose Earthquakes on July 14, 2008. Toronto maintains this roster spot through the end of the 2013 season, at which point it reverts to San Jose. Toronto FC acquired another international roster spot from San Jose on July 14, 2011. TFC has use of this spot through the end of the 2012 season, at which point it reverts to San Jose. Toronto also traded a spot to FC Dallas on August 2, 2011, for the remainder of the 2011 season only.

There is no limit on the number of international slots on each club's roster. The remaining roster slots must belong to domestic players. For clubs based in Canada, a domestic player is either a player with the legal right to work in Canada (i.e., Canadian citizen, permanent resident, part of a protected class) or a U.S. citizen, a permanent U.S. resident (green card holder) or the holder of other special U.S. status (e.g., refugee or asylum status).
