1982 Davis Cup Europe Zone

The Europe Zone was one of the three regional zones of the 1982 Davis Cup.

22 teams entered the Europe Zone in total, split across two sub-zones. The winner of each sub-zone was promoted to the following year's World Group.[1]

Ireland defeated Switzerland in the Zone A final, and Denmark defeated Hungary in the Zone B final, resulting in both Ireland and Denmark being promoted to the 1983 World Group.[2][3]
