As usual, the 36 teams from the 1st and 2nd Bundesliga have nothing to worry about. Every DFL club is automatically qualified for the coming DFB Cup season.
The four best-placed third division teams also receive a ticket for the first cup round of the following season. Excluded are second teams from DFL clubs, which are not allowed to take part in the cup competition.
21 additional places in the DFB Cup will be awarded to the state cup winners. If a third division team that has already qualified through league placement wins the national cup, the loser of the final moves up.
The remaining three places go to clubs from the regional associations that have the most teams in play.
