The 16 qualified teams were:

Teams that did not enter

(FIFA World Ranking of 16 May 2007)

Team Excluded

(FIFA World Ranking of 16 May 2007)

  •   Guinea-Bissau [187] had their entry rejected as they had unpaid debts to CAF.

Qualifying round

The 47 nations were divided into 11 groups of four teams and 1 group of 3 teams, with the 12 group winners and the best 3 runners-up from groups with four teams (originally groups 1–11, now groups 2–11 after the withdrawal of Djibouti from group 1) qualifying for the finals. Qualifying took place between 2 September 2006 and 13 October 2007.

Group 1

On 17 August 2006, the Djiboutian Football Federation announced that the Djibouti national team was withdrawing from the qualifying tournament, without giving a reason. [1] All Djibouti matches were therefore cancelled.
