The Chile national futsal team is controlled by the Federación de Fútbol de Chile, the governing body for futsal in Chile and represents the country in international futsal competitions, such as the World Cup and the Copa América de Futsal.
Chile has never achieved significant results at an international level, in the history of South American tournaments, it has never reached the top four places and therefore has never qualified for the World Cup, the first official victory in international competitions came in the 2000 Copa América in a 5-4 win over Ecuador.
The most significant results for the team to date came in the 2024 CONMEBOL Futsal Evolution League, where they finished first in the South zone in the senior category and were able to beat the South American powerhouses Paraguay and Argentina in official matches for the first time in history. Still, due to the results of the U-20 team, Chile finished second in the overall table and failed to qualify for the finals.[2][3]
