Qualification
Allocation of berths and auto qualifiers
According to FIBA Asia rules, the number of participating teams in the FIBA U18 Asian Championship was set at 16. The hosts and the defending champions qualified automatically. The host does not take its subzone's berth and the defending champions do. All FIBA Asia subzones got two berths each, except for the Central and South Asian subzones, which got one berth each. FIBA Oceania got two berths. The last three berths were allocated to Asian subzones based on their teams' results in the 2022 FIBA U18 Asian Championship.
