The 2022 CONCACAF Women's Championship qualification tournament is an upcoming women's football competition that will be contested by the senior women's national teams of the member associations of CONCACAF to decide the participating teams of the 2022 CONCACAF Women's Championship. The qualifying matches will take place in November 2021 and April 2022. A total of six teams in the qualifying competition will advance to the final tournament, joining Canada and the United States, who qualified automatically.
