The 2026 AFC Women's Champions League final was the final match of the 2025–26 AFC Women's Champions League, the 6th season of Asia's premier club women's football tournament organised by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), and the second since it was rebranded as the AFC Women's Champions League. The match involved Japanese club Tokyo Verdy (WE League champions) and North Korean side Naegohyang (DPR Korea Women's Premier League champions).
Naegohyang's appearance in the 2026 AFC Women's Champions League playoffs received interest. This marks the first time a group of North Korean athletes went to South Korea for a competitive game since the 2018 ITTF World Tour Grand Finals.
Naegohyang won the final and qualified for the 2027 FIFA Women's Champions Cup.
