2021 FANA World Cup qualification

The 2021 FANA World Cup qualification process is a series of tournaments organized by the seven FANA confederations to decide the 48 nations that will compete in the 2021 FANA World Cup. 114 countries across seven confederations will compete in the qualifying process. The qualifying process is expected to take place between November 2020 and March 2021. The qualification process will also determine the countries which will get a chance at the inter-confederation play offs.

In addition to determining the qualifiers for the 2021 FANA World Cup, the qualification process will also determine the qualifiers to the knock-out stages, otherwise known as the regional cups, which will be held in one host country of each confederation. These are held independently from the initial qualifying process, and are expected to be held in April 2021, in the host countries of United States of Eldance (UWFA), Torlova (FCS), Lidonia (NFC), Flírskmasto (KFASS), Qasentria (COSSAF), Zylofonija (CLF) and Lakadamia (LTFC).
