The 2027 FIBA Basketball World Cup qualification for the FIBA Europe region, will begin in February 2024 and will conclude in March 2027. The process will determine the twelve teams that will qualify for the 2027 FIBA World Cup.[1]

Format

FIBA Europe will be allocated 12 berths at the World Cup. In total, 42 FIBA Europe teams will take part in the qualification process. The qualification will consist of the following stages:

  • Pre-qualifiers
    • First round: Eight teams (plus entrants Armenia and Azerbaijan) that were eliminated from the EuroBasket 2025 pre-qualifiers will take part. Four teams advance to the second round.
    • Second round: The four teams that advanced from the previous round will be joined by the eight teams that were eliminated from the EuroBasket 2025 qualifiers. Eight teams will advance to the qualifiers.
  • Qualifiers
    • First round: 24 teams that qualified for EuroBasket 2025 and eight teams that advanced from the pre-qualifiers will be organized into eight groups of four. The top three teams of each group will qualify for the second round.
    • Second round: The top 24 teams from the first round will be organised into four groups of six, with results carried over from the first round. The top three teams of each group will qualify for the World Cup.

Pre-qualifiers

First round

First round will be contested between teams that will not participate in EuroBasket 2025 qualifiers. Armenia will be making their second appearance in World Cup qualification, while Azerbaijan will make their debut.[2]

The ten participating nations will be sorted into three groups. Group A will contain four teams, while Groups B and C will include three teams each.[3] Each team will play the other teams in its group in home and away games in a round robin system across three windows on February 19-27, 2024, November 18-26, 2024 and February 17-25, 2025. Four teams in total - the three group winners plus the best ranked second placed team across all groups - will advance to the Second round. The other six teams will be eliminated.

Draw

Draw took place on 8 August 2023 in Munich.[4]
