Replacements

  •  Albania – The Miss & Mister Albania organisation replaced Egla Harxhi, Miss Albania 2007, with Elda Dushi, for unknown reasons.
  •  Belarus – Miss Belarus 2006 1st Runner-up, Yulia Sindzeyeva, was supposed to compete in Miss World; however, she attended the Miss International contest in Japan, where she became 2nd runner-up. A contract with the Japanese organisation prevents her from attending the Miss World contest. 2nd runner-up, Alena Aladka, took her place.
  •  Curaçao – Lisaika Everitz, Miss World Curaçao, was not accepted as Curaçao's entry to Miss World 2007 for not meeting the age requirements. She was replaced with Naemi Monte. Since Monte did not turn in the official application to the national organisation before the deadline established by Miss World Ltd, the franchiseholder appointed a new delegate: Mckeyla Richards. After this action, Naemi Monte decided to file a lawsuit against the franchiseholder, Reprod, to regain the right to represent the island at the international pageant. On 17 October, a jury decided in favour of Reprod, ending the dispute between both.
  •  Latvia – Ina Avlasēviča, Miss Latvia 2006, competed in Miss World 2008. The organisation sent Kristīne Djadenko, a former Miss Latvia, to that year's pageant.
  •  Vietnam – Miss Sea 2007 as well as Miss Vietnam World 2007's 2nd Runner-up Đặng Minh Thu was named by Elite Vietnam as the country's candidate at Miss World 2007. They Earlier offered Miss World's ticket to Miss Vietnam World 2007 Ngô Phương Lan, who turned it down to focus on her studies in Switzerland and Teresa Sam, 1st Runner-up.
