The 2024 CONMEBOL Copa América de Futsal was the 14th edition of the Copa América de Futsal, the international futsal championship under FIFA rules organised by CONMEBOL for the men's national teams of South America. It was held in Luque, Paraguay from 2 to 10 February 2024.

This edition marked the return of the tournament as the CONMEBOL qualifiers for the FIFA Futsal World Cup (the last time was in 2008) after CONMEBOL decided to discontinue its specific qualifying tournament for that purpose after three editions in 2012, 2016 and 2020. The top four teams of the tournament (the four semi-finalists) qualified for the 2024 FIFA Futsal World Cup in Uzbekistan as the CONMEBOL representatives.

Argentina were the defending champions.

All ten CONMEBOL member national teams entered the tournament.

Each national team had to submit a squad of at least 10 and up to 14 players, including a minimum of two goalkeepers (Regulations Article 45). Members of each squad are listed on the CONMEBOL website.

On 19 December 2023, CONMEBOL confirmed Luque, Paraguay as the host city. This is the third time that Paraguay host the tournament and the second consecutive time after the previous edition in 2022; it had also hosted the 2003 edition.

All matches took place at the COP Arena – Estadio Óscar Harrison located within the Parque Olímpico sports complex in Luque.

The draw of the tournament was held on 12 January 2024, 11:00 PYST (UTC−3), at the CONMEBOL Convention Centre in Luque, Paraguay. The hosts, Paraguay, and the previous tournament's champions, Argentina, were seeded and assigned to the head of the groups A and B respectively. The remaining eight teams were split into four "pairing pots" (Brazil–Colombia, Uruguay–Venezuela, Ecuador–Bolivia, Peru–Chile) based on the final placement they reached in the previous edition of the tournament (shown in brackets).

From each pot, the first team drawn was placed into Group A and the second team drawn was placed into Group B. In both groups, teams from pot 1 were allocated in position 2, teams from pot 2 in position 3, teams from pot 3 in position 4 and teams from pot 4 in position 5.

The draw resulted in the following groups:
