The 2015 AFC U-16 Women's Championship qualification was a women's under-16 football competition which decided the participating teams of the 2015 AFC U-16 Women's Championship. Players born between 1 January 1999 and 31 December 2001 were eligible to compete in the tournament.[1]

A total of eight teams qualified to play in the final tournament, including Japan, North Korea, China PR (hosts), and Thailand, who qualified directly as the top four finishers of the 2013 AFC U-16 Women's Championship.

The top two teams of the final tournament qualified for the 2016 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in Jordan (besides Jordan who qualified automatically as hosts).[2]

Draw

The draw for the qualifiers was held on 17 June 2014 at the AFC House in Kuala Lumpur.[3] A total of 21 AFC member national teams entered the qualifying stage and were drawn into four groups.

  • West Zone had 12 entrants from Central Asia, South Asia and West Asia, where they were drawn into two groups of six teams.
  • East Zone had 9 entrants from ASEAN and East Asia (excluding direct qualifiers Japan, North Korea, China, and Thailand), where they were drawn into one group of five teams and one group of four teams.

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

  6. Penalty shoot-out if only two teams are involved and they are both on the field of play;
  7. Fewer score calculated according to the number of yellow and red cards received in the group matches (1 point for a single yellow card, 3 points for a red card as a consequence of two yellow cards, 3 points for a direct red card, 4 points for a yellow card followed by a direct red card);
  8. Drawing of lots.
