History
    
Sometimes this tournament is equated with the unofficial Asian Figure Skaters Championship. Held under the auspices of the International Skating Union (ISU), the organizer is the Asian Skating Confederation (ASU).Athletes compete in the categories of men's singles, women's singles figure skating and sometimes pair skating with ice dancing. As a rule, the competition is held before the start of the sports season in August. Competitions are held among adults (seniors), juniors and beginners (novices).
The Asian Figure Skating Championship is not held, Asian figure skaters of some countries take part in the European one, the rest in the Four Continents Championship, which has been held since the end of the 20th century.In the championship of the four continents, the main backbone is made up of athletes from Asia. Asian figure skaters began to compete with each other since the mid-80s of the XX century at the Asian Games. However, skaters did not take part in all Winter Games tournaments, and the games themselves are not held regularly.
At the beginning of the 21st century, the Asian Skating Confederation (ASU) invited skaters to hold a regular Continental Cup. The first tournament was held in Taipei, the capital of island China, in August 2007. The ISU did not control the first two tournaments and the points won did not count towards the figure skaters. The tournament is held at the beginning of the season and many top skaters do not take part in it.
At the beginning of June 2018, at the ISU Congress, it was decided, as an experiment, to include the tournament in the annual Challenger series next season (2018/2019). In the future, he remained in this series. In addition to Asian figure skaters, athletes from Australia, New Zealand, Austria, Brazil, the USA and Russia sometimes took part in the competition. After 2018, the tournament gained popularity and athletes from different continents took part in it.
The Asian Figure Skating Trophy is an international figure skating competition organized by the Asian Skating Federation and held from July to August. 2007 and 2008 will be published in the International Skating Union's event calendar as Asian Figure Skating Trophy, with senior, junior and novice class men's and women's single competitions, and senior class pair competitions in 2008 and synchronized in 2010. A skating competition was held. In 2007, senior classes for men's single competition were not recruited, and it was held in a hurry after the competition. In 2012, the Novice class was held as an advanced Novice class, and a new basic Novice class was held. From 2013, the entry rules that were limited to the Asian region were abolished, and the name was changed to Asian Open Figure Skating Trophy.
It was planned in August 2009, but it was not held.
The event was not listed in the event calendar in 2010, but it will be listed again in 2011.
From 2018, it was included in the ISU Challenger Series.
2021 did not meet the rules of the ISU Challenger Series and was held as an unofficial tournament.
