The Europe Zone was one of the three regional zones of the 1982 Davis Cup.

22 teams entered the Europe Zone in total, split across two sub-zones. The winner of each sub-zone was promoted to the following year's World Group.[1]

Ireland defeated Switzerland in the Zone A final, and Denmark defeated Hungary in the Zone B final, resulting in both Ireland and Denmark being promoted to the 1983 World Group.[2][3]
