The 2016 Asia Pacific Women's Championship was a rugby union competition for women's national teams held in Hong Kong from 9 to 17 December 2016. This tournament doubled as the qualification to the 2017 Women's Rugby World Cup, which is why Fiji, by virtue of winning the 2016 Oceania Rugby Women's Championship, is attending. The top two teams directly qualify to the World Cup.

Japan and Hong Kong secured their places for the Rugby World Cup after both teams defeated Fiji.
