Association team allocation

The association ranking based on the UEFA women's country coefficients is used to determine the number of participating teams for each association:^[2]

• Associations 1–6 each have three teams qualify.
• Associations 7–16 each have two teams qualify.
• All other associations, if they entered, each have one team qualify.
• The winners of the 2023–24 UEFA Women's Champions League are given an additional entry if they do not qualify for the 2024–25 UEFA Women's Champions League through their domestic league.

An association must have an eleven-a-side women's domestic league to enter a team. As of 2019–20, 52 of the 55 UEFA member associations organize a women's domestic league, with the exceptions being Andorra (1 club in Spain), Liechtenstein (3 clubs in Switzerland) and San Marino (1 club in Italy).

Association ranking

For the 2024–25 UEFA Women's Champions League, the associations are allocated places according to their 2023 UEFA women's Association coefficients, which takes into account their performance in European competitions from 2018-19 to 2022–23.^[3]
