Draw

The draw for the competition was done virtually on 22 August 2023. [2] [3]

Men

The teams were seeded based on their final ranking at the 2022 Asia Rugby Sevens Series.

* In September 2023, the allocation of the men's groups were reorganized following the late entry of the Sri Lanka national team as the OCA Flag icon.png Independent Athletes. The Sri Lanka team competed under the OCA flag just in rugby sevens due to their national rugby federation's suspension. The OCA team replaced Malaysia in Pool B as a 2nd ranked team and Malaysia instead Nepal in Pool A as a 3rd ranked team. Subsequently, Nepal moved to Pool D as a 4th ranked team. [4]

Women

The teams were seeded based on their final ranking at the 2022 Asia Rugby Women's Sevens Series.
