A total of 56 teams entered the 1962 World Cup qualification rounds, competing for a total of 16 spots in the final tournament. Chile, as the hosts, and Brazil, as the defending champions, qualified automatically, leaving 14 spots open for competition. In 1962 the Football World Cup returned to the continent of South America. ...

As with previous World Cups, the rules of the qualification rounds were quite confusing. Moreover, the winners of the three weakest confederations, CONCACAF (North, Central America and Caribbean), CAF (Africa) and AFC (Asia), were not guaranteed direct spots in the final tournament. Instead, each of them had to enter a play-off against a team from either UEFA (Europe) or CONMEBOL (South America), with the winners of the three play-offs qualifying. The 16 spots available in the World Cup would be distributed as follows: CONCACAF (the Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association Football), also known as The Football Confederation, is the continent-wide governing body for association football in North America, Central America and the Caribbean. ... The Confederation of African Football (CAF; French: Confédération Africaine de Football) represents international football in Africa, and organises the African Nations Cup as well as the African Champions League. ...

CONMEBOL or CSF (CONfederación sudaMEricana de FútBOL, South American Football Confederation) is the governing body of football in South America. ...

• Europe (UEFA): 8 direct places + 2 spots in the Intercontinental Play-offs (against teams from CAF and AFC), contested by 30 teams (including Israel and Ethiopia).
• South America (CONMEBOL): 5 direct places + 1 spot in the Intercontinental Play-offs (against a team from CONCACAF); 2 direct places went to automatic qualifiers Chile and Brazil, while the other 3.5 places were contested by 7 teams.
• North, Central America and Caribbean (CONCACAF): 1 spot in the Intercontinental Play-offs (against a team from CONMEBOL), contested by 8 teams.
• Africa (CAF): 1 spot in the Intercontinental Play-offs (against a team from UEFA), contested by 6 teams.
