2021 PDC World Cup of Darts

The competing nations were confirmed on 6 September 2021.^[7] The Top eight nations based on combined Order of Merit rankings were seeded, and all players named to those teams were the top 2 of each nation on the PDC Order of Merit, with the exception of Scotland and the United States. Peter Wright revealed on September 4 that Gary Anderson would not be representing Scotland for personal reasons and that John Henderson would replace him, while Danny Baggish also had to withdraw from the United States team due to quarantine regulations, with Chuck Puleo replacing him.^[8] Players representing unseeded nations were chosen by qualification tournaments specifically for this event.

China and Singapore returned to the competition after having to miss out last year, due to travel problems relating to COVID-19. Croatia were set to return, having not participated in the competition since 2013, but on 7 September, Croatia withdrew following an illness to Boris Krčmar, with Greece (represented by John Michael and Veniamin Symeonidis) replacing them.^[9] New Zealand (who were to be represented by Warren Parry and Ben Robb) missed out for the first time owing to their country's COVID travel restrictions, and after a confusion by an incorrect communication sent by PDC Nordic & Baltic, it was revealed that the Latvian team of Madars Razma and Nauris Gleglu would be the first reserves, and not one of the 32 teams in the competition.

Paolo Nebrida was due to represent the Philippines, but had to withdraw as his COVID-19 vaccination was not on the approved list to get him into Germany, so he was replaced by Christian Perez. Russia's Dmitriy Gorbunov also had to withdraw to due quarantine regulations and was replaced by Evgenii Izotov.

The teams are as follows:

	First round (best of 9 legs) 9–10 September					Second round (best of 3 matches) 11 September								Quarter-finals (best of 3 matches) 12 September								Semi-finals (best of 3 matches) 12 September								Final (best of 5 matches) 12 September
