2005–06 UEFA Cup qualifying rounds

Teams

]]

In total, 87 teams entered qualifying stage, which consisted of the following rounds:

• First qualifying round (50 teams): 50 teams which entered in this round.
• Second qualifying round (62 teams): 37 teams which entered in this round, and 25 winners of the first qualifying round.

The 31 winners of the second qualifying round advanced to the first round, joining 49 other teams.

In the qualifying rounds, UEFA divided the participating teams into three geographical regions: Northern, Central–East, and Southern–Mediterranean. Teams were then seeded within their respective regions, rather than being seeded among all participating teams of the round. This meant that a club potentially seeded in an open draw format could be unseeded in the regional system, or vice versa. The regional allocation of countries was generally as follows:

• Northern: Belgium, Denmark, England, Estonia, Faroe Islands, Finland, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Northern Ireland, Norway, Republic of Ireland, Scotland, Sweden, Wales
• Central–East: Armenia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Czech Republic, France, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Liechtenstein, Moldova, Poland, Russia, Slovakia, Switzerland, Ukraine
• Southern–Mediterranean: Albania, Andorra, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Greece, Israel, Italy, Macedonia, Malta, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Serbia and Montenegro, Slovenia, Spain, Turkey

However, UEFA could make exceptions to these allocations to ensure an even number of teams in each region.

Below were the participating teams of the qualifying rounds (with their 2005 UEFA club coefficients), grouped by their starting rounds.
