The 2019 FFA Cup preliminary rounds were the qualifying competition to decide 21 of the 32 teams to take part in the 2019 FFA Cup Round of 32, along with the 10 A-League clubs and reigning National Premier Leagues champion, Campbelltown City . The preliminary rounds operated within a consistent national structure whereby club entry into the competition was staggered in each federation, with the winning clubs from Round 7 of the preliminary rounds in each member federation gaining entry into the Round of 32. All Australian clubs were eligible to enter the qualifying process through their respective FFA member federation, however only one team per club was permitted entry in the competition.
