FIFA World Cup 2026: Who has qualified?

A total of 48 national teams will compete at the tournament. As co-hosts, USA, Mexico, and Canada are automatically qualified. Other nations are securing their spots through intense qualifiers worldwide.

TUNISIA

The Carthage Eagles advanced to the World Cup after their 1-0 victory over Equatorial Guinea on September 8. 2025. That win enabled Tunisia become the second African side to qualify after the September World Cup CAF qualifiers. The Carthage Eagles will play in their third-straight World Cup and seventh overall.

MOROCCO

The Atlas Lions emerged as the first African side to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup by ruling the CAF Group E on September 5, 2025. Their 5-0 victory over Niger formalized Morocco’s seventh World Cup appearance and its third-straight after a historic 2022 campaign where they reached the semifinals.

PARAGUAY

La Albirroja will be playing at football’s biggest global showcase next year after finishing within CONMEBOL’s top six. This marks Paraguay’s second overall appearance and the first since 2010, ending a 16-year absence. La Albirroja made it after a 0-0 draw against Ecuador at home on September 4, 2025.

JAPAN

The Samurai Blue eased through qualifying to secure their place at the global showpiece. Japan booked their ticket with three group games left to spare in the third round of the AFC preliminaries and will compete in their eighth successive World Cup.

NEW ZEALAND

New Zealand booked their spot at the World Cup by overcoming New Caledonia 3-0 in the OFC qualifying final. The All Whites will compete at the tournament for the third time, having previously qualified for the 1982 and 2010 editions.
