The qualifying process for the 1963 Uber Cup took place from 29 September 1962 to 18 February 1963 to decide the final teams which will play in the final tournament.
Qualified teams
The qualification process is divided into four regions, the Asian Zone, the American Zone, the European Zone and the Australasian Zone. Teams in their respective zone will compete in a knockout format. Three singles and four doubles will be played on the day of competition. The teams that win their respective zone will earn a place in the final tournament to be held in Wilmington, United States.[1]
The winners of the 1960 Uber Cup, the United States were exempted from the qualifying rounds and automatically qualified for the challenge round. Therefore, Canada automatically qualified for the final tournament since there was no other opponent in the American zone qualifiers.[2]
