The first edition was held in Malaysia from 17 to 26 September 2015.[1][2] The second edition was held in Thailand from 2 to 12 May 2018.[3] The third edition was scheduled to be held in Kuwait in 2020 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4] From 2021, the tournament will be rebranded from the "AFC Women's Futsal Championship" to the "AFC Women's Futsal Asian Cup".[5]
