The Badminton Asia Championships (formerly Asian Badminton Championships until 2006) is a tournament organized by governing body Badminton Asia to crown the best badminton players in Asia.

The tournament started in 1962 and is held annually since 1991. The event had rotated between team and individual competitions before the team event became null since 1994.

At the 2003 event however, there is a controversy when China decided to pull out from the tournament at the last minute. Head coach Li Yongbo said that the tournament did not award any ranking points for the 2004 Summer Olympics event and wanted to give his players more time to rest. Some of the top players were also willing to pull out from the tournament since the competitiveness of the event was low.

The Asia Championships is a premier badminton tournament that brings together the best players from across the Asian continent to compete at the highest level. Featuring men's and women's singles, doubles, and mixed doubles events, this prestigious competition showcases exceptional talent, agility, and strategic prowess. Held annually, the Asia Championships serves as a key platform for athletes to earn ranking points, gain international experience, and demonstrate their skills on a grand stage. With a vibrant atmosphere and passionate fans, the tournament highlights the rich badminton heritage of Asia and continues to inspire the next generation of players.
