League C of UEFA Women's Euro 2025 qualifying was the third and lowest division of qualifying for UEFA Women's Euro 2025, the international football competition involving the women's national teams of the member associations of UEFA. The results were also used to determine the leagues for the 2025 UEFA Women's Nations League competition.

Format

League C consists of 19 UEFA members ranked 33rd to 51st among competition entrants in the 2023–24 UEFA Women's Nations League ranking, split into four groups of four (Groups 1 to 4) and one group of three (Group 5). Each team played six matches (in four-team groups) or four matches (in three-team group) within their group, using the home-and-away round-robin format with double matchdays in April, May to June, and July 2024.

After the league phase, the five group winners and the three best group runners-up advanced to the play-offs to determine who qualifies for the final tournament. For the first play-off round the eight League C teams were unseeded, and drawn against the eight lowest-ranked teams in League A. The winner of those ties will advance to the second round.

The competition also acted as the first phase for the 2025 UEFA Women's Nations League, which will use an identical league structure. The five group winners were promoted to League B.

Seeding

Teams were allocated to League C after the conclusion of the 2023–24 Women's Nations League promotion/relegation matches on 27 February 2024. Teams were split into three pots of five teams and one pot of four teams, ordered based on their overall ranking.

Pot 1 Team Rank  Slovenia 28  Greece 29  Belarus 30  Romania 31  Albania 32

Pot 2 Team Rank  Latvia 38  Montenegro 39  Bulgaria 40  Estonia 41  Lithuania 42

Pot 3 Team Rank  Luxembourg 43  Kazakhstan 44  North Macedonia 45  Cyprus 46  Andorra 47

Pot 4 Team Rank  Georgia 48  Moldova 49  Faroe Islands 50  Armenia 51

1. ^ Bulgaria, Latvia, Montenegro, Northern Ireland, Slovakia, and Ukraine participated in the League B vs League C promotion/relegation matches in February 2024 to determine each team's league allocation.

The draw took place in Nyon, Switzerland on 5 March 2024 at 13:00 CET. Groups 1 to 4 contained one team from each pot, while Group 5 contained one team from Pots 1 to 3. The draw started with Pot 1 and ended with Pot 4, with drawn teams assigned to the first available group in ascending order from C1 to C5. The teams that previously played in three-team groups in the 2023-24 Women's Nations League (Bulgaria and North Macedonia), were drawn into four-team groups for this competition.
