Qualification
Automatic qualification
It was announced prior to the beginning of qualification that the winners of the previous tournament would be automatically given a place at the tournament. However, due to champions Sanama being awarded hosting rights, and therefore filling the criteria for both of the tournament's automatic places and the corresponding 2026 FMF Confederations Cup berths, it was decided that the 2024 runners-up, Craitland, were to also receive automatic qualification to the Benacia Cup and the FMF Confederations Cup.
