UEFA Group D of the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup qualification competition consisted of six teams: England, Austria, Northern Ireland, North Macedonia, Latvia, and Luxembourg. The composition of the nine groups in the qualifying group stage was decided by the draw held on 30 April 2021,[1] with the teams seeded according to their coefficient ranking.[2]
The group was played in home-and-away round-robin format between 17 September 2021 and 6 September 2022, with a pause for the Women's Euro 2022 in July. The group winners qualified for the final tournament, while the runners-up advanced to the play-offs first round if they were one of the other six runners-up among all nine groups (not counting results against the sixth-placed team).[3]
