All drivers require a superlicence to debut in Formula One and need to acquire 40 points through racing in other series across three seasons.
A free practice only superlicence requires at least 25 points.
The FIA said holders of such a limited superlicence would be granted an additional point per Formula One world championship event if they did at least 100km in a session without incurring any penalty points.
"A maximum total of 10 such additional points may be awarded per driver for free practice sessions over a three year period," it added.
The new all-female W Series, which started this year, will also be eligible for points from 2020.
The FIA did not say how many would be awarded to the winner.
