The 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification UEFA Group H was one of the ten UEFA groups in the World Cup qualification tournament to decide which teams would qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup finals tournament in Qatar.[1] Group H consisted of six teams: Croatia, Cyprus, Malta, Russia, Slovakia and Slovenia.[2] The teams played against each other home-and-away in a round-robin format.[3]

The group winners, Croatia, qualified directly for the World Cup finals, while the runners-up, Russia, advanced to the second round (play-offs), but they were later suspended due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[4]
