Qatar at the Copa América

The Copa América is South America's major tournament in senior men's soccer and determines the continental champion. Until 1967, the tournament was known as South American Championship. It is the oldest continental championship in the world.

Qatar is not member of the South American football confederation CONMEBOL. But because CONMEBOL only has ten member associations, guest nations have been invited since 1993.

Record at the Copa América edit

Qatar was the second team from outside the Americas to participate in the Copa América, and was invited for the first time in 2019.
