# Juno Award for International Album of the Year

The Juno Award for International Album of the Year was an annual award given to a non-Canadian album. It was given out from 1975 to 2024. It was formerly known as Best Selling Album (Foreign or Domestic) (1993–2002), Best Selling Album by a Foreign Artist (1992), International Album of the Year (1981–1991), and Best Selling International Album (1975–1980). Thus, the rules had changed slightly over the years. (Céline Dion, a Canadian won in 1999, 1997 & 1995 and Bryan Adams, also a Canadian won in 1993.)
Recently, the nominees were based on sales (i.e. the five best-selling non-Canadian albums of the year), and therefore do not necessarily represent the year's "best" international albums. However, the ultimate winner of the award was determined by vote of the CARAS board of directors.
It is one of several categories that media reports in September 2024 indicated would be placed on "hiatus" for the Juno Awards of 2025; of the four, it was the only one for which the Juno Award committee did not explicitly announce a reversal of the decision on September 17.
