The 1964 AFC Asian Cup was the 3rd edition of the men's AFC Asian Cup, a quadrennial international football tournament organised by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC).[1] The finals were held in Israel from 26 May to 3 June 1964.

The tournament used a round-robin system which had to be increased in size to five teams, with the winners from the Western, Central 1 and 2 and Eastern zones, as well as the host nation (Israel) competing for the title.[2] Eleven of the 17 nations withdrew from qualificationTemplate:Refn resulting in only one zone (a combined Central 1 and 2) playing any qualifying matches. The two remaining teams from the Western and Eastern zones respectively qualified uncontested.

The final tournament was subsequently a four-team competition, the same format as previous editions, with Israel winning the title with a perfect record of three wins.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9] In keeping with previous editions of the tournament, all the matches were only 80 minutes in duration.[2]
