2016 Davis Cup Europe/Africa Zone Group I




Main article: 2016 Davis Cup

The Europe/Africa Zone was one of the three zones of the regional Davis Cup competition in 2016.


In the Europe/Africa Zone there were three different tiers, called groups, in which teams competed against each other to advance to the upper tier. Winners in Group I advanced to the World Group Play-offs, along with losing teams from the World Group first round. Teams who lost their respective ties competed in the relegation play-offs, with winning teams remaining in Group I, whereas teams who lost their play-offs were relegated to the Europe/Africa Zone Group II in 2017.
