FFI was founded on 22 June 2014 at the 'Indonesia Futsal Congress' held by PSSI as the Indonesia Futsal Association (Indonesian: Asosiasi Futsal Indonesia; abbreviated as AFI).[1][2] FFI is the successor to the National Futsal Body (Indonesian: Badan Futsal Nasional; abbreviated as BFN) which was later dissolved by PSSI in 2014.[1] On the next day, Hary Tanoesoedibjo was elected as AFI's chairman.[3]

AFI then changed its name to Federasi Futsal Indonesia (FFI) after its first congress on 20 November 2015.[4]
