The qualification process for the 2019 Rugby World Cup began during the pool stages of the 2015 tournament in England, during which the top three teams from each of the four pools were awarded automatic qualification for the 2019 event. A further eight teams qualified through regional, cross-regional tournaments and the repechage process.[1]

The qualifying matches began on 5 March 2016, when Jamaica defeated Saint Vincent and the Grenadines 48–0. Symbolically, the referee for the match was Nigel Owens, who had refereed the 2015 Rugby World Cup Final five months earlier.[2]

Qualification process

Following the confirmed twelve automatic qualified teams, World Rugby announced the qualification format for the eight remaining places on 12 November 2015. Of the eight berths remaining, six were decided by regional tournaments, with Africa and Europe gaining a single berth through the Africa Cup tournament and Rugby Europe Championship (Africa 1 and Europe 1).

Oceania were granted two berths due to their bad results in 2015, with all three of the major Pacific Island nations playing each other home and away across 2016 and 2017 (Oceania 1 and 2). Following the individual regional tournaments in Americas North and Sudamérica in the earlier stages of qualification, both regions merged so that Americas 1 and Americas 2 could be decided on a full Americas scale.

One of the remaining berths was decided through cross-regional play-offs, with a European and an Oceania team playing home and away play-offs, to earn qualification (Play-off winner).

The final berth was decided through a Repechage tournament, with the tournament being mainly made up of teams that finished in their region as runner-up (Africa 2, Americas 3, play-off loser and Asia/Oceania play-off winner).

All non-automatic qualifiers were decided by November 2018.

Repechage qualification

{{See also|2019 Rugby World Cup – repechage qualification}}

Following the end of each regional qualification process, four teams took part in the repechage process for the final spot at the World Cup. Unlike previous Repechages, the four teams played in a Round-robin tournament, where all teams will played each other once. The repechage tournament was hosted at the neutral venue of the Stade Delort in Marseille, France in November 2018.
