The 2013 Africa Cup of Nations was an international football tournament held in South Africa from 19 January until 10 February 2013.

The Confederation of African Football confirmed 9 January as the deadline for final squad submissions ahead of the tournament. The African confederation wanted all 23-man squad lists sent to its Cairo headquarters by midnight GMT on 9 January. Failing to do so would result in a fine and infringing countries will only be allowed to take a 22-man squad to the finals.

Along with their 23-man squads, countries were allowed to bring a delegation of 17 officials.
