The 2021 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup qualifiers for UEFA was a beach soccer tournament contested by European men's national teams who are members of UEFA that determined the four nations from Europe that qualified to the 2021 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup in Russia.
The event, organised by Beach Soccer Worldwide (BSWW), took place in Nazaré, Portugal from 17–27 June 2021.[1]
The tournament was a multi-stage competition, consisting of a first group stage, second group stage, knockout stage and placement matches.
Russia were the defending champions but did not enter this year's competition, having already qualified for the World Cup as hosts.[1] The tournament was won by Spain, who, along with Ukraine, Portugal and Belarus earned qualification to the World Cup by finishing in the top four positions; Ukraine subsequently withdrew from the World Cup before it began and were replaced by Switzerland.[a]
