The 2024 WBSC Premier12 was the 3rd edition of the WBSC Premier12, a baseball championship featuring the 12 highest-ranked national teams in the world, held by the World Baseball Softball Confederation (WBSC). Originally scheduled for 2023, but delayed due to COVID-19, the championship was held from November 9 to 24, 2024, in Japan, Mexico, and Taiwan.[1]

Taiwan won the championship, defeating final round hosts and defending champions Japan, 4–0, in the championship game. It was Chinese Taipei's first Premier12 championship and their first overall senior international baseball title ever.[2][3]

The United States took third place after a 6–1 win over Venezuela.[4]
