2012 AFC Challenge Cup qualification

The seedings are based on the 2010 AFC Challenge Cup. Unlike previous editions with the exception of the inaugural edition, no team has been given direct entry into the 2012 AFC Challenge Cup. Defending champions Korea DPR, runners-up Turkmenistan and third-placed Tajikistan would now have to go through the qualifiers to enter the finals. The eight lowest ranked teams would take part in the playoff round while the remaining 12 teams would enter the Group Stage.

For the pre-qualifying phase, the eight lowest ranked teams played off over two legs on a home-and-away basis{{cite web |url=http://www.the-afc.com/uploads/Documents/common/cms/afc/clcq012regulations.pdf |title=AFC Challenge Cup 2012 (Qualifiers) Competition Regulations |work=The-AFC.com |publisher=Asian Football Confederation |access-date=9 April 2011 }} with the away goals rule, extra time and penalty shootouts to determine winners if necessary. The matches took place on 9 and 16 February 2011 with the four winners advancing to the group stage. However, for Afghanistan–Bhutan fixtures, they were rescheduled for 23 and 25 March and were played in at the Tau Devi Lal Stadium in Gurgaon, India.{{cite news |url=http://www.the-afc.com/en/inside-afc/676-afc-news/33363-afghanistan-bhutan-tie-in-india- |title=Afghanistan, Bhutan tie in India |work=The-AFC.com |publisher=Asian Football Confederation |date=22 February 2011 |access-date=22 February 2011 }}

The second leg of the Philippines–Mongolia fixture was originally due to take place on 16 February 2011. However, in early January 2011, Philippine Football Federation president Mariano Araneta said he wanted the match to take place at the same venue as the first leg on 12 February, citing the winter conditions in Mongolia.{{cite news |url=http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=645088 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120911190121/http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=645088 |url-status=dead |archive-date=11 September 2012 |title=PFF readying Panaad for Challenge Cup |author=Henson, Joaquin |work=The Philippine Star|date=4 January 2011 |access-date=16 February 2011 }} Mongolian Football Federation president Ganbold Buyannemekh insisted that the second leg be played in Mongolia but proposed a 15 March date instead as a compromise.{{cite news |url=http://www.sunstar.com.ph/bacolod/sports/mongolian-xi-insists-home-and-away |title=Mongolian XI insists on home and away |author=Galunan Jr., Jerome S. |work=Sun.Star |location=Bacolod |date=8 January 2011 |access-date=16 February 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120402050350/http://www.sunstar.com.ph/bacolod/sports/mongolian-xi-insists-home-and-away |archive-date=2 April 2012 |url-status=dead }}

Cambodia win 5–4 on aggregate

In the group stage, the 16 teams were divided into four groups of four teams each playing a single round-robin tournament (league system). This included the 12 highest ranked automatically qualified teams and the four qualifiers from the playoff round. The original match days were 20–31 March 2011. The top two teams in each group qualified for the final tournament. On 18 February 2011, the AFC announced that the hosts for each group were: Myanmar for Group A, Malaysia for Group B, Maldives for Group C, and Nepal for Group D; with match dates on 21, 23 and 25 March 2011.{{cite news |url=http://www.the-afc.com/en/tournaments/men-a-youth/afc-challenge-cup/33280-afc-cc-2012-qualifying-hosts-confirmed |title=AFC CC 2012 qualifying hosts confirmed |work=The-AFC.com |publisher=Asian Football Confederation |date=18 February 2011 |access-date=18 February 2011 }}

However, for Group D, the All Nepal Football Association proposed the hosting rights since the end of December 2010, which the AFC had endorsed. The fixtures were also scheduled to take place from 21 to 25 March but on 7 February 2011 it was announced that the qualifiers had to be postponed due to the unavailability of the main stadium (Dasarath Rangasala Stadium) due to a wrestling event. The fixtures were then set to 7 to 11 April 2011.{{cite news |url=http://www.myrepublica.com/portal/index.php?action=news_details&news_id=26629 |title=Nepal to host AFC Challenge Cup group |author=Timalsina, Prakash |publisher=My Republica |date=31 December 2010 |access-date=16 February 2011 }}{{cite news |url=http://www.goalnepal.com/news.php?id=3244 |title=AFC Challenge Cup date postponed |publisher=Goal Nepal |date=7 February 2011 |access-date=16 February 2011 |archive-date=11 July 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110711102803/http://www.goalnepal.com/news.php?id=3244 |url-status=dead }}
