The 2014 Asian Five Nations division tournaments, known as the 2014 HSBC Asian 5 Nations for sponsorship reasons, refer to the divisions played within the annual Asian Five Nations rugby union tournament. This is the 7th series of the Asian Five Nations. For the first time since 2010, only four division were used, with a shortened Division 1 due to the change of format in 2015. Division 3 was split into an East and a West conference which like Division 1 was out in place ahead of that format in 2015.
