The 1992 Thomas & Uber Cup was the 17th tournament of the Thomas Cup, and the 14th tournament of the Uber Cup, which are the major international team competitions in world badminton. The 1992 final stage was held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on May 16, 1992.[1]

China were the defending champions for both the Thomas Cup and the Uber Cup.

Host selection

Kuala Lumpur was named as the host in October 1990 during an IBF Council meeting in Bangkok, Thailand.[2] Indonesia and China also submitted their bids to host the tournaments but did not succeed. However, Indonesia earned the right to host the 1994 Thomas & Uber Cup in Jakarta.

Qualification

Malaysia qualified automatically as hosts, while China qualified as the trophy holder.
