2022 Asian Men's Volleyball Cup

The 2022 Asian Men's Volleyball Cup, so-called 2022 AVC Cup for Men was the seventh edition of the Asian Cup, a biennial international volleyball tournament organised by the Asian Volleyball Confederation (AVC) with Thailand Volleyball Association (TVA). The tournament was held at Nakhon Pathom Gymnasium, Nakhon Pathom, Thailand from 7 to 14 August 2022.

As hosts, Thailand automatically participate for the tournament, while the remaining 10 teams, qualified from the 2021 Asian Men's Volleyball Championship in Chiba, Japan.

Host selection
On 2 December 2021, at the AVC meeting in Bangkok, Thailand, AVC initially announced that the tournament would be held in Taiwan. The tournament was to take place in the city of Taipei. But with Taiwan's strict COVID-19 protocols conflicting with FIVB and AVC's guideline, the tournament relocated to a new host country.

On 23 June 2022, AVC announced that Thailand will host the relocated 2022 Asian Men's Volleyball Cup.

 * 7) * Set quotient: if two or more teams are tied on the number of points gained, they will be ranked by the quotient resulting from the division of the number of all set won by the number of all sets lost.
 * 8) * Points quotient: if the tie persists based on the set quotient, the teams will be ranked by the quotient resulting from the division of all points scored by the total of points lost during all sets.
 * 9) * If the tie persists based on the point quotient, the tie will be broken based on the team that won the match of the Round Robin Phase between the tied teams. When the tie in point quotient is between three or more teams, these teams ranked taking into consideration only the matches involving the teams in question.
