The 2021 Asian Wrestling Championships took place from 13 April to 18 April in Almaty, Kazakhstan.[1][2] It was held at the same venue as the 2021 Asian Wrestling Olympic Qualification Tournament. This event was the 34th edition of the Asian Wrestling Championships.[3]

China did not enter the competition and Japan's women team withdrew before the championship due to close contact with a patient of COVID-19.[4]
