Participants in the competition were determined by regional competitions and play-in matches staged in 2023. The top three teams of that year's Six Nations and Pacific Four series were placed in WXV 1. The fourth-placed team in both series were placed in WXV 2 with that year's African, Asian and Oceanian champions; their runners-up were placed in WXV 3 with the sixth-placed Six Nations team.[4] The winners of a play-in between the fifth-placed Six Nations team and the European champions will be placed in WXV 2, while the losers will be placed in WXV 3 with the winners of a play-in between Brazil and Colombia, the only two active Sudamérica Rugby women's national teams.[5][6]
The South American play-in will be staged as a two-match series on 5 and 9 July in Medellín, Colombia.[6] It was preceded by the 2023 Americas Rugby Trophy, the first South American tournament for women's national teams sanctioned by World Rugby.[7] A match in the tournament between Brazil and Colombia was decided by a late converted try by Juliana Soto, helping Colombia win 15–18.[6] The European play-in will be staged as a single match between Italy and Spain on 22 July in Piacenza, Italy.[5] Spain had lost their previous two encounters against Italy, including a 2021 Rugby World Cup qualifier where Italy ended Spain's World Cup bid by scoring five tries in a convincing 34–10 victory.[5][8]
