TheAFC U-20 Asian Cup, formerly known as theAFC Youth Championship andAFC U-19 Championship, is a biennial internationalassociation football competition organised by theAsian Football Confederation (AFC) for the men's under-20 national teams of Asia that also serves as a qualification tournament for theFIFA U-20 World Cup. The competition has been held since1959. Between 1959 and1978, the tournament was held annually (without qualification); since1980, it has been held every two years. The1980 AFC Youth Championship had a qualification stage for first time.

The tournament has been played in a number of different formats during its existence. Currently, it consists of two stages, similar to the AFC's other Asian Championship competitions. The qualifying stage is open to all AFC members and the final stage is contested between 16 teams. Themost recent edition, the 42nd, was held inChina. The AFC switched the tournament from under-19 to under-20 starting from 2023.^[1] Moreover, the tournament was also rebranded from the "AFC U-19 Championship" to the "AFC U-20 Asian Cup".^[2]
