The 1984 Thomas Cup & Uber Cup was the 13th tournament of Thomas Cup and the tenth tournament of Uber Cup, the most important badminton team competitions in the world.

On 4 May 1983, the International Badminton Federation announced that both the Thomas Cup and the Uber Cup will be combined and held simultaneously starting from 1984. The International Badminton Federation also announced that the Cup qualifiers and the final tournament will be played in a best-of-5 format as opposed to the previous best-of-9 format.

Indonesia won its eighth title in the Thomas Cup, after beating China in the final round; and China won its first title in the Uber Cup, after beating England in the final.

Host selection

Kuala Lumpur was named as the host on 8 March 1983 by the IBF after defending Thomas Cup champions China declined the offer to host the tournament. Stadium Negara was the venue chosen to host the tournament.

Qualification

Malaysia qualified automatically for both the Thomas Cup and the Uber Cup as hosts. China and Japan qualified for the Thomas Cup and the Uber Cup respectively as trophy holders.
