UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying Group H

Group H of UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying was one of the ten groups to decide which teams would qualify for the UEFA Euro 2024 final tournament in Germany. Group H consisted of six teams: Denmark, Finland, Kazakhstan, Northern Ireland, San Marino and Slovenia. The teams played against each other home-and-away in a round-robin format.[1]

The top two teams, Denmark and Slovenia, qualified directly for the final tournament. The participants of the qualifying play-offs were decided based on their performance in the 2022–23 UEFA Nations League.
