Draw procedure

In all, 52 of the 54 entrants are involved in the qualifying round. Hosts Romania will enter directly in the final tournament, while Portugal – who have the highest coefficient – will begin in the elite round.

The teams were split into four pots based on their coefficient ranking:

Pot A: Italy, France, England, Spain, Norway, Ukraine, Republic of Ireland, Israel, Czechia, Serbia, Türkiye, Germany, Slovakia

Pot B: Denmark, Greece, Poland, Belgium, Netherlands, Iceland, Austria, Hungary, Croatia, Scotland, Finland, Sweden, Latvia

Pot C: Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Armenia, Switzerland, North Macedonia, Bulgaria, Georgia, Wales, Northern Ireland, Malta, Cyprus, Kosovo, Azerbaijan

Pot D: Montenegro, Belarus, Luxembourg, Estonia, Moldova, Kazakhstan, Albania, Lithuania, Faroe Islands, Andorra, San Marino, Gibraltar, Liechtenstein

On the basis of decisions taken by the UEFA Executive Committee and the UEFA Emergency Panel, valid at the time of the draw, the following countries could not be drawn into the same group: Spain and Gibraltar, Belarus and Ukraine, Kosovo and Serbia, and Kosovo and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The teams in Pot A were drawn one after another and placed in the first position in Groups 1 to 13 in ascending order.

The teams in Pot B were drawn one after another and each one placed in the second position in Groups 1 to 13 in ascending order.

The teams in Pot C were drawn one after another and each one placed in the third position in Groups 1 to 13 in ascending order.

The teams in Pot D were drawn one after another and each one placed in the fourth position in Groups 1 to 13 in ascending order.

If clashes arose, the team drawn would have been moved to the next available group. The draw would have continued by first filling the slot left vacant. If clashes arose in the last three or four groups, the teams would have been allocated to groups appropriately.
