Papua New Guinea and Samoa finished fourth and fifth respectively and, as the second and third highest-placed sides not already qualified, won entry to the 2020 Final Olympic Qualifier as well as the 2020 Hong Kong Women's Sevens qualifying tournament for the 2020–21 World Women's Sevens Series.
The following nations competed at the 2019 tournament, including two invited teams – the Canadian development team (Maple Leafs) and a development side from Japan:
Teams were seeded into three pools of four.
