1984 Davis Cup Europe Zone

The Europe Zone was one of the three regional zones of the 1984 Davis Cup.

25 teams entered the Europe Zone in total, split across two sub-zones. The winner of each sub-zone was promoted to the following year's World Group.[1]

The Soviet Union defeated Israel in the Zone A final, and Spain defeated Hungary in the Zone B final, resulting in both the Soviet Union and Spain being promoted to the 1985 World Group.[2][3]
