FIFA members are eligible to enter theFIFA Women's World Cup and matches between them are recognized as official international matches. Based on their match results over the previous four-year period, theFIFA Women's World Rankings, published monthly by FIFA, compare the relative strengths of the national teams.

Some national teams that are members of a confederation but not FIFA members compete in confederation-level and subregional tournaments. These teams, however, are not allowed to participate in the World Cup.
