Format
The two highest-ranked teams from CONCACAF in the FIFA Women's World Ranking received a bye to the final tournament. Thirty teams entering qualification will be drawn into six groups to play four matches each in a single-leg round-robin tournament during the international windows of November 2025, and February–March and April 2026. The winners of each group will qualify for the final tournament in November 2026.[2]

The draw will take place on 20 August 2025, 19:00 EDT, in Miami, United States. The 30 teams taking part in qualifying were seeded based on the FIFA Women's World Ranking of August 2025.[a] The top six teams in the ranking were pre-seeded, and automatically allocated to position 1 in order from groups A to F. The remaining teams were placed into pots 1 to 4 based on ranking, with each pot containing six teams.
