The 2024 Futsal Africa Cup of Nations will be the eighth edition of the Futsal Africa Cup of Nations, the quadrennial international futsal championship organised by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) for the men's national teams of Africa. The tournament was first planned to be held in Mozambique. However Mozambique declined after, to host the competition. Morocco announced the organization of the tournament for the second time in a row. Same as previous editions, the tournament acted as the CAF qualifiers for the FIFA Futsal World Cup (except for 2012 when a separate qualifying tournament was organized as the 2011 African Futsal Championship was cancelled). The top three teams of the tournament will qualify for the 2024 FIFA Futsal World Cup in Uzbekistan as the CAF representatives. Morocco are the defending champions.
