The 2014 Caribbean Cup qualification began in May 2014 and ended in October 2014.[1] The qualification competition determined which national teams could play in the 2014 Caribbean Cup which in turn determined which teams participated in the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup and the 2016 Copa América Centenario.

In March 2014, it was announced that Jamaica would host the 'final stage' of the competition in Montego Bay.[2]

In April 2014, the Caribbean Football Union announced the group stage draw.[3]
