The Asian Team Chess Championship (recently also called the Asian Nations Chess Cup) is an international team chess tournament open to national federations affiliated to FIDE in Asia and Oceania. It is organized by the Asian Chess Federation, and the winner qualifies to participate at the next World Team Chess Championship.[1] The open championship has been held at intervals of anywhere from one to four years since 1974. The Asian Women's Team Chess Championship has been held concurrently with the open championship since 1995. Recent editions have additionally featured side team events held at rapid and blitz time controls.
The current Asian champion is Iran, which won in 2018 on home soil at Hamadan.[2] Of the twenty editions of the open championship, China has won eight times, the Philippines have won six times, India has won three times, and Iran, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan have each won once.[3] The defending champion of the women's tournament is China, which has won eight of the ten women's championships played; Vietnam won the other two.[4]
