The Eastern section of the 2022 FIFA World Cup certification works as qualifiers for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, to be kept in Qatar, for national teams which are members of the Eastern Football Confederation (AFC). In Addition To Qatar (that qualified automatically as hosts), a total amount of 4.5 slots (4 direct slots as well as 1 inter-confederation play-off port) in the final tournament are offered for AFC teams.The qualification process involves 4 rounds; the very first two rounds double as the certification for the 2023 AFC Asian Mug. Regardless of certifying as hosts, Qatar took part in these two rounds to look for Eastern Cup credentials. They would certainly have functioned as qualifiers for the terminated 2020 AFC Solidarity Mug.
