Preliminary rounds

Member federation teams are competing in various state-based preliminary rounds to win one of 22 places in the competition proper (at the Round of 32). All Australian clubs (other than youth teams associated with A-League franchises) are eligible to enter the qualifying process through their respective member federation; however, only one team per club is permitted entry into the competition. The preliminary rounds operate within a consistent national structure whereby club entry into the competition is staggered in each state/territory, determined by what level the club sits at in the Australian soccer league system. This ultimately leads to round 7 with the winning clubs from that round entering directly into the round of 32.

As there was no NPL Champion in the previous year, an additional slot was allocated to Victoria for this edition only.{{Cite web |url=https://www.australiacup.com.au/news/final-rounds-slot-allocations-australia-cup-2022-confirmed|title=Final Rounds slot allocations for Australia Cup 2022 confirmed|publisher=Football Australia |date=23 February 2022|access-date=23 February 2022}}

The top eight placed A-League Men clubs from the 2021–22 A-League Men season gained automatic qualification to the Round of 32. The remaining four teams entered a play-off series to determine the remaining two positions.
