In the rounds 4 to 6, each tie is played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. In the first round professional teams cannot be paired with each other. In the second and third round any remaining teams from 2015–16 Nemzeti Bajnokság I cannot be paired with each other.
Tie-breaker criteria
In the first three rounds and the final the team that scores more goals advances to the [|next round]. If the score is level, then thirty minutes of extra time is played, divided into two fifteen-minutes halves. If the score is level again after extra time, the tie is decided by penalty shoot-out. In the round 4 to 6 the team that scores more goals on aggregate over the two legs advances to the next round. If the aggregate score is level, the away 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, then thirty minutes of extra time is played, divided into two fifteen-minutes halves. 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 by penalty shoot-out.
