The first ordering window and subsequent draw for tickets will begin that day.
To be in with a chance of winning tickets for the tournament in the United States, Mexico and Canada, interested parties must create a so-called FIFA ID on the federation's website.
FIFA advises people to do this as soon as possible.
Tickets will be sold in several phases until the final on Sunday July 19, 2026.
Some 6.5 million visitors are expected at the World Cup. With 48 teams and 104 matches in three countries, it is the biggest edition to date.
Demand, especially for the matches involving top teams or the important knock-out round matches, will most likely exceed supply.
Some tickets have already been allocated. For example, FIFA offered combined tickets for the Club World Cup and the World Cup, no doubt to boost the sometimes sluggish sales for the recent team tournament in the US.
It is still unclear who will play when. The World Cup groups will be drawn at the beginning of December. FIFA has not yet announced exactly when and where the ceremony will take place.
