After consulting the South American member federations, FIFA and CONMEBOL have agreed to postpone the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 ™ qualifying matches initially scheduled in the September 2020 international window. Qualifiers are now scheduled to start in October 2020.
Taking into account the results of the discussions held in the COVID-19 Working Group of FIFA and the confederations, the CONMEBOL Council has asked FIFA to include an international window in January 2022 in order to complete the South American qualifiers in March 2022.
This request will be processed at the next meeting of the FIFA Council Bureau.
