Quarter-finals

Following a three-month hiatus to the competition during the second round proper from 4 January to 4 April 2021 due to government guidelines, the final stages of 2020–21 Women's FA Cup were delayed until the 2021–22 season. The competition recommenced at the quarter-final stage on Wednesday 29 September 2021.{{cite web |title=Remaining Cup dates confirmed |url=https://womenscompetitions.thefa.com/Article/vitality-womens-fa-cup-2020-21-remaining-dates-confirmed-20210511 |website=womenscompetitions.thefa.com}} As a result of playing the competition across two seasons, clubs were able to register new players barring certain restrictions: any player who had not yet featured in the 2020–21 Women's FA Cup could be registered. Up to three players who appeared in the competition for teams that had been eliminated prior to the quarter-final stage could be registered for their new club but no player who appeared for a different team still in the quarter-finals could be registered.
