The 2025 FMF World Cup qualification rounds were the confederational qualifying competitions for the 2025 FMF World Cup, the fifteenth tournament of its kind.

Each of the four FMF confederations were given a quota of berths to be filled, with two nations earning automatic places; hosts Tellia (WMFA) and 2023 winners Senya (AEFA). The following number of guaranteed places were assigned to each confederation:

A further two places were reserved for the winners of the interconfederational play-offs, which were contested between eight teams that finished as the best group runners-up across the four confederations.

The draws for the 2025 qualifying groups were the second to use seeded pots generated from the standings of the FMF Elo Micras Rankings.
