V Aziji EESO sodeluje z organizacijami civilne družbe na Kitajskem, Japonskem, v Singapurju, Južni Koreji in Vietnamu.

Leta 2007 po devetem srečanju na vrhu med EU in Kitajsko je bila vzpostavljena okrogla miza civilne družbe s Kitajsko, ki se sestane enkrat na leto.

Februarja 2009 je bil ustanovljen spremljevalni odbor z Japonsko, ki spremlja civilnodružbeno razsežnost odnosov med EU in Japonsko ter spodbuja sodelovanje med EESO in podjetji, delavskimi, okoljskimi in potrošniškimi organizacijami ter drugimi večjimi japonskimi organizacijami civilne družbe. V okviru sporazuma o gospodarskem partnerstvu med EU in Japonsko je bila ustanovljena notranja svetovalna skupina EU za Japonsko, ki opravlja vlogo spremljanja in svetovanja v skladu s poglavjem o trgovini in trajnostnem razvoju sporazuma o prosti trgovini.

EU je sklenila sporazume o prosti trgovini z naslednjimi azijskimi državami: Južno Korejo (2011), Japonsko (2019), Singapurjem (2019) in Vietnamom (2020). Za te sporazume je značilno, da vključujejo poglavje o trgovini in trajnostnem razvoju, EESO in drugim organizacijam civilne družbe, vključno z organizacijami civilne družbe v partnerskih državah, pa dajejo formalno vlogo, da prek notranjih svetovalnih skupin spremljajo njihovo izvajanje ter svetujejo ustreznim političnim organom na področju okoljskih, socialnih in delovnih standardov ter o drugih vprašanjih, ki so neposredno pomembna za civilno družbo. Vsako leto potekajo dve do tri seje notranjih svetovalnih skupin EU, skupno sejo pa imajo enkrat letno.

Poleg tega EESO ob različnih priložnostih sodeluje s civilno družbo v drugih azijskih državah in pri ustreznih mednarodnih dogodkih.
