Group J of UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying was one of the ten groups to decide which teams would qualify for the UEFA Euro 2024 final tournament in Germany. Group J consisted of six teams: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Portugal and Slovakia. The teams played against each other home-and-away in a round-robin format.[1]

The top two teams, Portugal and Slovakia, qualified directly for the final tournament. The participants of the qualifying play-offs were decided based on their performance in the 2022–23 UEFA Nations League, of which Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iceland and Luxembourg qualified for the playoffs. This meant that the only team which was eliminated after the group stage matches in this group was Liechtenstein.

Portugal won all ten of their matches, becoming the eighth national side to qualify for a European Championship with a 100% record, and the ninth instance, after France (1992 and 2004), Czech Republic (2000), Germany, Spain (both 2012), England (2016), Italy and Belgium (both 2020).
