The Americas Zone was one of three zones of regional competition in the 1996 Fed Cup.
Group I
The eight teams were divided into two pools of four teams. The top two teams of each pool play-off in a two-round knockout stage to decide which nation progresses to World Group II play-offs. Nations finishing in the bottom place in each pool were relegated to Americas Zone Group II for 1997.
