The eight teams will be split into two groups of four teams. The first-placed team qualifies to the semifinals while the second-and third-placed teams play in a playoff round. The second-placed teams face off against the third-placed teams. A knockout-system will be used after the preliminary round with the losing teams playing in a classification game.

Qualified teams

Alongside hosts China, every other team who finished in the top seven of the 2023 edition retained their place in Division A. Joining them are the winners of the Division B, Indonesia, who take part in Division A for the first time since divisions were created.[3] For the first time since 1984, Chinese Taipei will not be present at an Asia Cup after being relegated to Division B.
