List Of National Teams With No FIFA World Cup Appearances
This is a list of national football teams with no appearances in the FIFA World Cup final tournament. Teams are listed by confederation and then by number of unsuccessful qualifying attempts. Only FIFA affiliates are listed.
In the tables below all qualification tournaments where the national team played at least one game are counted as attempts to qualify, even if the team subsequently withdrew. Withdrawals before the start of the qualification are excluded; also excluded are occasions where teams withdrew or were disqualified during their campaign and had all their results from that campaign annulled.
