The 2010 AFC Challenge Cup qualification phase will see five teams advance to the finals to join three automatic qualifiers in the final tournament in Sri Lanka.

Qualification consists of two sections.

  • A playoff between the 19th and 20th ranked entrants (Mongolia and Macau)
  • Four qualification groups for four teams. Each group winner will advance to the finals, along with the best-ranked runner-up. Because of the withdrawal of Afghanistan the ranking of second-placed teams will exclude results of any matches against fourth-placed sides.[1]

Seeding

Seeding was based partially on the FIFA World Ranks as at January 2009 (ranking shown in brackets).
