TO BE CONSIDERED AS A HOST, A MEMBER MUST HAVE AT LEAST 100,000 INHABITANTS IN A METROPOLITAN AREA AND MEET WUFO REQUIREMENTS.
SPECIAL NOTES
Iran holds two positions; the other six Members hold one each.
Kazakhstan remains a UEFA Member Association; hosting does not
change Confederation affiliation. If Kabul cannot be certified,
Afghanistan may use another certified location within Afghanistan
without losing its protected territorial Host Position.
All actual venues require certification for their edition.
