Israel qualified as hosts South Korea qualified as holders Western Zone India qualified by default (India were to play with Iran, Pakistan and a couple of other teams that were to be played either on home and away basis, or a special tournament, but all the teams involved refused to play India due to political reasons at that time and thus India were awarded a place in the Asia Cup Finals).

They were due to play against Japan and the Philippines in Taipei in August 1963, but neither confirmed participation by the deadline set for the preliminary matches to be played. Reportedly, Philippines couldn't select a team due to a dispute about whether overseas Chinese would be eligible, and Japan withdrew because "they knew they had no chance to win".
NB: Taiwan withdrew citing logistical difficulties;
South Vietnam were invited to replace them but refused for financial reasons
