Iran's national futsal team will not need to compete in preliminary matches to qualify into the 2006 Asian futsal championships. In efforts to reduce costs, the AFC decided in a November 29th meeting to automatically qualify the Asian standings' top 13 teams into the Asian futsal championships. Twelve teams are therefore set to compete in preliminary matches while the top 13 teams automatically qualify.
Current Asian rankings are as follow:
1- Iran
2- Japan
3- Kyrgyzstan
4- Uzbekistan
5- Thailand
6- Kuwait
7- Tajikistan
8- China
9- Palestine
10- Iraq
11- Indonesia
12- Taiwan
13- Lebanon
