FIFA Women's World Cup qualification is the process a national women's association football team goes through to qualify for the FIFA Women's World Cup. Qualifying tournaments are held within the six FIFA continental zones (Africa, Asia, North and Central America and Caribbean, South America, Oceania, Europe), and are organized by their respective confederations. For each tournament, FIFA decides beforehand the number of berths awarded to each of the continental zones, based on the relative strength of the confederations' teams. The hosts of the World Cup receive an automatic berth in the finals. For the 2015 and 2019 FIFA Women's World Cups, the number of finalists increased from 16 to 24.[1] Since 2023, the number is 32.[2] All confederation, except for the UEFA, hold qualification process throughout continental tournaments. The UEFA organises its own qualification phase since 1999. Starting from 2031, the AFC will also organise its own qualification phase.

The table below lists the numbers of berths allocated by FIFA for each continent in each tournament. Intercontinental play-offs are played as two home-and-away matches. The team that scores a greater aggregate number of goals qualifies for the World Cup. Away goals rule applies. If these rules fail to determine the winner, extra time and penalty shootouts are used. "H" denotes an automatic spot for the host. Places in intercontinental play-offs are represented as fractions, with a place in a direct play-off being counted as 0.5 spots.
