AFC organises the AFC Futsal Asian Cup, AFC Women's Futsal Asian Cup, AFC Beach Soccer Asian Cup, various age-level international association football, youth futsal tournaments and the Asian qualifying tournament for the FIFA World Cup and for football at the Summer Olympics.

The top-ranked AFC tournament for association football clubs is the AFC Champions League which started in the 2002–03 season (an amalgamation of the Asian Club Championship and the Asian Cup Winners' Cup) and gathers the top 1–4 teams of each country (the number of teams depend on that country's ranking and can be upgraded or downgraded); this tournament only gathered teams from top country. And AFC Women's Club Championship for women's association football club competition.

A second, lower-ranked tournament is the AFC Cup which was launched by AFC in 2004. A third tournament, the AFC President's Cup which had started in 2005 was absorbed into the AFC Cup in 2015.

AFC runs an annual Asian futsal club tournament, the AFC Futsal Club Championship for futsal club competition.
