The 2014 Asian Five Nations division tournaments, known as the 2014 HSBC Asian 5 Nations for sponsorship reasons, refer to the divisions played within the annual Asian Five Nations rugby union tournament. This is the 7th series of the Asian Five Nations. For the first time since 2010, only four division were used, with a shortened Division 1 due to the change of format in 2015. Division 3 was split into an East and a West conference which like Division 1 was out in place ahead of that format in 2015.
The teams involved, with their world rankings pre tournament, were:
Division 1
Division 2
Division 3 East
Division 3 West
Division 4
The 2014 Division 1 tournament was held as a single match knock-out format. The participants of the final will remain in Division 1 for the 2015 as the bottom two teams from the 2014 Asian Five Nations tournament will be relegated to Division 1.
The 2014 Division II tournament, like the previous tournaments, is being held in a single match knock-out format.
The 2014 Division 3 tournament was split into an East and West tournament with both tournaments being held in a single match knock-out format.
