Earlier last week, Iran defeated Japan to defend their Asian continental title, as both advanced to the World Championship, while Tunisia and Cameroon made it through from the African championship.
Previously, Brazil and Argentina secured their own tickets from South America, with Puerto Rico and Canada advancing through the NORCECA (North, Central America and Caribbean) championship.
The lineup will be completed by the top 12 teams from the FIVB World Rankings - amongst those not already qualified through the continental pathway.
