The 2015 AFC U-19 Women's Championship qualification was a women's under-19 football competition which decided the participating teams of the 2015 AFC U-19 Women's Championship. Players born between 1 January 1996 and 31 December 2000 were eligible to compete in the tournament.[1]

A total of eight teams qualified to play in the final tournament, including South Korea, North Korea, China PR (hosts), and Japan, who qualified directly as the top four finishers of the 2013 AFC U-19 Women's Championship.

The top three teams of the final tournament qualified for the 2016 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Papua New Guinea.[2]

Draw

The draw for the qualifiers was held on 17 June 2014 at the AFC House in Kuala Lumpur.[3] A total of 14 AFC member national teams entered the qualifying stage and were drawn into four groups.

  • West Zone had 7 entrants from Central Asia, South Asia and West Asia, where they were drawn into one group of four teams and one group of three teams.
  • East Zone had 7 entrants from ASEAN and East Asia (excluding direct qualifiers South Korea, North Korea, China, and Japan), where they were drawn into one group of four teams and one group of three teams.

The teams were seeded according to their performance in the previous season in 2013.
