The2004–05 UEFA Cup qualifying rounds was the qualification competition that determined the teams participating in the main competition of the2004–05 UEFA Cup. It began on 13 July 2004 with the first qualifying round and ended on 26 August 2004 with the second qualifying round. The two qualifying rounds narrowed the clubs down to 80 teams in preparation for thefirst round.
Times areCEST (UTC+2), as listed by UEFA.
In total, 89 teams entered qualifying stage, which consisted of the following rounds:
The 32 winners of the second qualifying round advanced to thefirst round, joining 42 other teams.
In the qualifying rounds, UEFA divided the participating teams into three geographical regions: Northern, Central–East, and Southern–Mediterranean. Teams were then seeded within their respective regions, rather than being seeded among all participating teams of the round. This meant that a club potentially seeded in an open draw format could be unseeded in the regional system, or vice versa. The regional allocation of countries was generally as follows:[1]
However, UEFA could make exceptions to these allocations to ensure an even number of teams in each region.
Below were the participating teams of the qualifying rounds (with their 2004UEFA club coefficients), grouped by their starting rounds.[2]

Notes
Each tie is played overtwo legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that scores more goals on aggregate over the two legs advance to the next round. If the aggregate score is level, theaway goals rule is applied, i.e. the team that scores more goals away from home over the two legs advances. If away goals are also equal, thenextra time is played. The away goals rule is again applied after extra time, i.e. if there are goals scored during extra time and the aggregate score is still level, the visiting team advances by virtue of more away goals scored. If no goals are scored during extra time, the tie is decided bypenalty shoot-out.[3]
In the draws for each round, teams are seeded based on theirUEFA club coefficients at the beginning of the season, with the teams divided into seeded and unseeded pots containing the same number of teams. A seeded team is drawn against an unseeded team to determine the ties. Prior to the draws, UEFA forms "groups" in accordance with the principles set by the Club Competitions Committee, but they are purely for convenience of the draw and do not resemble any real groupings in the sense of the competition. Teams from the same association or from associations with political conflicts as decided by UEFA may not be drawn into the same tie. After the draws, the order of legs of a tie may be reversed by UEFA due to scheduling or venue conflicts.
The schedule was as follows (all draws are held at the UEFA headquarters inNyon, Switzerland).[4]
