| 2023–24 FA Cup qualifying rounds | |
| Country: | England Wales |
| Num Teams: | 640 |
| Prev Season: | 2022–23 |
| Next Season: | 2024-25 |
The 2023–24 FA Cup qualifying rounds opened the 143rd edition of the FA Cup, the world's oldest association football single knockout competition, organised by The Football Association, the governing body for the sport in England. 640 teams in the 5th to 10th tier of English football competed across six rounds for 32 spots in the First round proper.
Places for the FA Cup were capped at 732 to match the number of clubs in the top 9 tiers of English football, meaning 640 places were available in the qualifying competition.[1] Clubs from the 10th tier were accepted only where there was a shortage of teams due to higher ranked teams not applying or being ineligible for entry. This left seven places, which were awarded to the applicants from the 10th tier that had finished 2022–23 with the highest points per game, but that had not been promoted.

The draw for the extra preliminary round was made on 7 July 2023.[2] The seven clubs allowed entry from the 10th tier (Stockport Town, Hartpury University, Brislington, Wells City, Wendron United, Liskeard Athletic and Okehampton Argyle) were the lowest ranked teams to enter.
