2019 UEFA Under-19 Futsal Championship qualification

The 2019 UEFA Under-19 Futsal Championship qualifying competition was a men's under-19 futsal competition that determined the seven teams joining the automatically qualified hosts Latvia in the 2019 UEFA Under-19 Futsal Championship final tournament. Players born on or after 1 January 2000 were eligible to participate.

Teams
Apart from Latvia, a total of 34 (out of 54) UEFA member national teams entered the qualifying stage. They are seeded according to the coefficient ranking of their men's senior national teams, calculated based on the following:
 * UEFA Futsal Euro 2016 final tournament and qualifying competition
 * 2016 FIFA Futsal World Cup final tournament and qualifying competition
 * UEFA Futsal Euro 2018 final tournament and qualifying competition

The 26 highest-ranked teams entered the main round, while the 8 lowest-ranked teams entered the preliminary round. The coefficient ranking was also used for seeding in the preliminary round and main round draws, where each team was assigned a seeding position according to their ranking for the respective draw. One team was pre-selected as hosts for the preliminary round (the hosts of Group B to be confirmed by 9 November 2018) and seven teams were pre-selected as hosts for the main round.

The draws for the preliminary round and main round were held on 1 November 2018, 14:00 CET (UTC+1), at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland. The mechanism of the draws for each round is as follows:
 * In the preliminary round, the eight teams were drawn into two groups of four containing one team from each of the seeding positions 1–4. First, the team which was pre-selected as hosts was drawn from their own designated pot and allocated to their respective group (Group A) as per their seeding positions. Next, the remaining seven teams were drawn from their respective pot which were allocated according to their seeding positions.
 * In the main round, the 28 teams were drawn into seven groups of four, containing one team from each of the seeding positions 1–4. First, the seven teams which were pre-selected as hosts were drawn from their own designated pot and allocated to their respective group as per their seeding positions. Next, the remaining 21 teams were drawn from their respective pot which were allocated according to their seeding positions (including the two preliminary round winners, whose identity was not known at the time of the draw, which were allocated to seeding position 4). Based on the decisions taken by the UEFA Emergency Panel, Russia and Ukraine would not be drawn into the same group. Moreover, should Kosovo advance from the preliminary round and qualify for a main round group with either Serbia or Bosnia and Herzegovina, they would be swapped with the team in seeding position 4 of the next possible main round group.
