2020 Davis Cup World Group I#Romania vs. Portugal

Twenty-four teams participated in the World Group I, in a series decided on a home and away basis. The seedings are based on the nations ranking of 9 March.{{cite news|url=https://www.daviscup.com/en/news/317101.aspx|title=Seeds announced for Davis Cup Finals 2020|website=Daviscup.com|date=9 March 2020}}

These twenty-four teams were:

• 12 winning teams from World Group I play-offs

The eight highest-ranked (as at 20 September 2021) winners of the World Group I ties automatically progressed to the 2022 qualifiers. The four lowest-ranked winners took part in an additional knock-out tie in November 2021, with the two winners progressing to the 2022 qualifiers and two losers contesting the 2022 World Group I play-offs. The losing nations from the World Group I ties will compete in the World Group I play-offs in 2022.{{Cite web|url=https://www.daviscup.com/en/draws-results/world-group-i/2021.aspx|title = Davis Cup - Draws & Results}}
