Only three Nepalese clubs have received license for AFC Club competitions.

Machhindra Football Club, Tribhuvan Army Football Club and APF Football Club have been granted AFC Club License, as per ANFA.

It means if Church Boys United or any other club (other than abovementioned teams) wins the on-going league, they can't compete in AFC Cup qualifiers.

The First Instant Body (FIB) decided to grant the AFC Club License to three clubs.

The license will be applicable for AFC Cup.

The clubs had also received the club licensing for the previous season.
