Notes:
- ↑ Dinamo București, the fourth-placed team of the 2015–16 Liga I, failed to obtain a UEFA licence after filing for insolvency in 2014,[48][49] and CFR Cluj, winners of the 2015–16 Cupa României, also failed to obtain a UEFA licence after filing for insolvency in 2015.[50][51] Târgu Mureș, the sixth-placed team, are excluded from participating in the 2016–17 European competitions by the UEFA Club Financial Control Body.[52] Therefore, the seventh-placed team will enter the second qualifying round.[51][53]
- ↑ CFR Cluj would have qualified for the Europa League third qualifying round by winning the 2015–16 Cupa României, but failed to obtain a UEFA licence after filing for insolvency in 2015.[50][51]
