In each zone there are two groups, Group I being the higher and Group II the lower, except

for the Europe/Africa Zone, which also has a Group III.Within the Group zonal regions,

teams are split into pools and play against each other in a round robin format.The exact

format of each Group event, and promotion and relegation between them, varies according

to the number of participating teams.Two teams are always promoted from Europe/Africa

Group I to that year's World Group II Play-Offs, while one team each go to the World Group

II Play-Offs from Americas Group I and Asia/Oceania Zone Group I.=== Current structure

===

This structure has been implemented since 2016.=== Ties ===

In World Group and World Group II, and World Group and World Group II Play-off ties, each

tie is contested in a best of five matches format, and is played across two days.On the first

day there are two singles matches, and then the reverse singles matches take place on the

following day.The final match is a doubles.In Zonal Groups I, II and III, ties are played over

the best of three matches (two singles and a doubles).The First Round Ties in the World

Group and World Group II are played on a home and away knock-out basis, and take place

over a weekend in the early part of the year.World Group Semi-finals and Final are played

over on a home and away knock-out basis, and take place over a weekend in July (Semi-

finals) and September (Final).Play-off ties for World Group and World Group II will also be

played on a home and away knock-out basis taking place in July.The choice of ground for

First Round, Semi-finals and Play-off ties is decided by lot or goes automatically to one of
the competing nations.As Groups I, II and III are played in a round robin format in all three

zones, each event takes place at a single venue over one week.These are held in the first half

of the year (to allow promotion of teams to the World Group II Play-off ties in the second

half of the year), and dates and venues are decided by the BJK Cup Committee.== Records
