2025–26 Coupe de France

The 2025–26 Coupe de France is the 109th season of the main football cup competition of France. The competition is organised by the French Football Federation (FFF) and is open to all clubs in French football, as well as clubs from the overseas departments and territories (Guadeloupe, French Guiana, Martinique, Mayotte, Tahiti, Réunion, Saint Martin, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, and New Caledonia).

Paris Saint-Germain were the two-time defending champions, having defeated Reims 3–0 in the previous year's final for a record-extending sixteenth Coupe de France title; they were eliminated in the round of 32 by rivals Paris FC.

Dates for the first two qualifying rounds, and any preliminaries required, were set by the individual Regional leagues. From round three, the FFF defined the calendar, with rounds up to and including the round of 32 being scheduled for weekends and later rounds up to, but not including, the final, taking place on midweek evenings.

Every district-level and regional level teams can join in the first round or get exempted to the second or third round. The exempted regional level teams, the teams from National 3 and a team from Saint Pierre and Miquelon will be joining the competition in the third round. The teams from National 2 will be joining the competition at the fourth round. The teams from National will be joining the competition at the fifth round.

Below is the number of teams per level according to the rounds.

The 176 teams were divided into nine distinct groups of equal level and geography to avoid long travel. These were the 155 clubs that qualified from the sixth round, the 18 clubs from Ligue 2 and clubs from Mayotte, New Caledonia and Tahiti

Two teams each from French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique and Réunion faced each other internally to decide their respective representative for Round 8.

The round of 64 draw was split into three groups, roughly by geography, with Ligue 1 teams distributed evenly. The draw was made on 1 December 2025.
