The 2025 FIFA U-17 World Cup will be the 20th edition of the FIFA U-17 World Cup, the annual international men's youth football tournament contested by the under-17 national teams of the member associations of FIFA. It will be held in Qatar from 5–27 November.[1]

This edition will be the opening of the annual cycle adopted by FIFA for the U-17 World Cup and the first to be played in the 48-team format instead of the previous biennial 24-team tournaments.[2] As part of these changes, FIFA also decided to grant Qatar the hosting rights for the tournament for a five-year period from, 2025 to 2029.[3]

Germany are the defending champions, having won their first title in 2023. This edition celebrates the 40th anniversary of the U-17 World Cup.
