The 2022 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 2022 FANA World Cup. 114 countries across seven confederations competed in the qualifying process. The qualifying process took place between November 2021 and April 2022. The qualification process also determined the countries which will get a chance at the inter-confederation play offs.

In addition to determining the qualifiers for the 2022 FANA World Cup, the qualification process also determined the qualifiers to the knock-out stages, otherwise known as the regional cups, which are held in one host country of each confederation. These are held independently from the initial qualifying process, and are expected to be held in March to May 2022, in the host countries of (TBA) (UWFA), (TBA) (FCS), (TBA) (NFC), (TBA) (KFASS), (TBA) (COSSAF), (TBA) (CLF) and (TBA) (LTFC).
