The 2021 Asia Rugby Women's Sevens Series was hosted as two tournament events in the United Arab Emirates in late November 2021. Following the cancellation of the 2020 series due to impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, it was the twelfth edition of Asia's continental sevens circuit. The first leg of the tournament was a qualifier for the 2022 Rugby World Cup Sevens in South Africa. Japan and China qualified for the World Cup.{{Cite web|date=2021-11-21|title=Four Asian teams book their berths at Rugby World Cup Sevens 2022 in Cape Town|url=https://www.asiarugby.com/2021/11/21/sevens-2022-in-south-africa/|access-date=2021-11-23|website=Asia Rugby|language=en-US}}
