The 2024 Africa Beach Soccer Cup of Nations qualifying round determined the eight teams that competed in the final tournament in October. The draw for the qualifiers took place on June 13, 2024, at the CAF headquarters in Cairo.[5] The matches were held during the weekends of July 19–21 and July 26–28.[6]
Qualification ties were played on a home-and-away, two-legged basis. If the sides were level on aggregate after the second leg, the away goals rule was applied, and if still level, the tie proceeded directly to a penalty shoot-out (no extra time played).
Host Egypt qualified automatically, while the other 14 teams competed against each other to determine the remaining 7 spots.
