The 2017 AFC U-20 Futsal Championship was the first edition of the AFC U-20 Futsal Championship, the biennial international futsal championship organised by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) for the men's youth national teams of Asia. The tournament was hosted by Thailand between 16 and 26 May 2017. Iran and Thailand had signaled their intent to host the inaugural competition.
A total of 21 teams participated in the tournament. The 21 teams were divided into four groups (one with six teams and three with five teams), with the group winners and runners-up advancing to the quarter-finals.
The tournament served as qualifying for the futsal tournament at the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics in Buenos Aires, with the winner and the runner-up qualifying for the boys' tournament, to be represented by their under-18 representative teams.
Qualified teams
Of the 47 AFC member associations, a total of 22 teams entered the competition. There was no qualification, and all entrants advanced to the final tournament. Saudi Arabia initially entered but decided to withdraw prior to the draw.
Venues
The matches were played at the Bangkok Arena and Indoor Stadium Huamark in Bangkok.
Draw
The draw for the final tournament was held on 30 March 2017, 15:00 ICT (UTC+7), at the Grand Fourwings Convention Hotel in Bangkok. The 21 teams were drawn into one group of six teams (Group A) and three groups of five teams (Groups B, C and D), with the hosts Thailand automatically assigned to position A1 in the draw. As there were no previous editions, the teams were seeded according to the performances of their senior teams in the 2016 AFC Futsal Championship.
Squads
Players born after 1 January 1997 were eligible to compete in the tournament. Each team must register a squad of 14 players, minimum two of whom must be goalkeepers (Regulations Articles 27.1 and 27.2).

Qualified teams for Youth Olympics
The following two teams from AFC qualified for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics boys' futsal tournament.
Notes
Since teams from the same association cannot play in both the Youth Olympics boys' and girls' tournaments, if teams from the same association qualify for both tournaments, they must nominate their preferred qualification team, and the next best ranked team will qualify instead if one of the qualified teams are not nominated.
As participation in team sports (Futsal, Beach handball, Field hockey, and Rugby sevens) are limited to one team per gender for each National Olympic Committee (NOC), the participating teams of the 2018 Youth Olympics futsal tournament will be confirmed by mid-2018 after each qualified NOC confirms their participation and any unused qualification places are reallocated.
