In the 2021 Asian Trophy, only men's singles and women's singles had international participants, and the total number of ISU member countries represented in the event was 9. These conditions do not satisfy the requirement to be a Challenger Series event.[5]

Skaters were eligible to compete on the Challenger Series if they had reached the age of 15 before July 1, 2021.

The ISU Challenger Series rankings were formed by combining the two highest final scores of each skater/team.
