2016 African Nations Championship qualification#Northern Zone

File:2016 ANC Qualification.png

A total of 42 CAF member national teams entered the qualifying rounds, split into zones according to their regional affiliations.{{cite web|url=http://www.cafonline.com/en-US/NewsCenter/News/NewsDetails?id=FO2B9t8AhXrLIJ1pY%2fQP6g%3d%3d|title=CHAN 2016 & Beach Soccer Championship draws for April 5|publisher=CAF|date=24 March 2015}}

;Notes

• Algeria were excluded by the CAF from participating because of their withdrawal against Libya in the 2014 African Nations Championship qualification.{{cite web|last=Afrik-Foot|title=CHAN 2016 : L’Algérie exclue|url=http://www.afrik-foot.com/chan-2016-l-algerie-exclue|publisher=Afrik-Foot}}{{cite web|last=Goal.com|title=Algeria withdraws from CHAN 2014 qualifiers|url=http://www.goal.com/en-za/news/4622/africa/2013/06/19/4060405/algeria-withdraws-from-chan-2014-qualifiers|publisher=Goal.com}}{{cite web |title=CHAN-2016 : L'Algérie disqualifiée |url=http://www.djazairess.com/fr/elwatan/484072 |work=El Watan |publisher=Tarek Aït Sellamet |date=16 January 2015 }}

In the Northern Zone, teams played each other on a double round-robin basis. The teams were ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). If tied on points, tiebreakers would be applied in the following order:

1. Number of points obtained in games between the teams concerned;
2. Goal difference in games between the teams concerned;
3. Goals scored in games between the teams concerned;
4. Away goals scored in games between the teams concerned;
5. If, after applying criteria 1 to 4 to several teams, two teams still have an equal ranking, criteria 1 to 4 are reapplied exclusively to the matches between the two teams in question to determine their final rankings. If this procedure does not lead to a decision, criteria 6 to 9 apply;
6. Goal difference in all games;
7. Goals scored in all games;
8. Away goals scored in all games;
9. Drawing of lots.

In all other zones, qualification ties were played on a home-and-away two-legged basis. If the aggregate score was tied after the second leg, the away goals rule would be applied, and if still level, the penalty shoot-out would be used to determine the winner (no extra time would be played).

The top two teams in the Northern Zone and the 13 winners of the first round in all other zones qualified for the final tournament.

The draw was held on 5 April 2015, 16:00 UTC+2, at the CAF Headquarters in Cairo, Egypt.{{cite web|url=http://www.cafonline.com/en-US/NewsCenter/News/NewsDetails?id=sPFQWdwZJI9rQRElkvMmOA%3d%3d|title=Live Report: Draw of qualifiers of Orange African Nations Championship Rwanda 2016|publisher=CAF|date=5 April 2015}}{{cite web|url=http://www.cafonline.com/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=q-DsAOTNZ2k%3d&portalid=0&language=en-US|title=FIXTURES PRELIMINARIES OF THE FOURTH EDITION OF THE AFRICAN NATIONS CHAMPIONSHIP- RWANDA 2016|publisher=CAF}}
