The 2025 AFC U-20 Asian Cup qualification was an international men's under-20 football competition which was held to decide the participating teams of the 2025 AFC U-20 Asian Cup.
46 out of 47 AFC member associations entered the competition. China, as the hosts, were automatically qualified for the final tournament and thus did not participate in qualification; Pakistan did not enter the competition at all.
The draw was held on 13 June 2024. The ten teams hosting the qualification groups were allocated to a separate pot, with other teams seeded according to their performance in the previous tournament and qualification process (overall ranking shown in parentheses).
Players born on or after 1 January 2005 were eligible to compete in the tournament.
In each group, teams played each other once at a centralised venue.

Due to groups having a different number of teams, the results against the fifth-placed teams in five-team groups were not considered for this ranking.
