On 3 May 2016, Kosovo became a full member of UEFA, the governing body of association football in Europe.[1][2] Kosovo football clubs can qualify for UEFA's two of the three main continental competitions, the UEFA Champions League since the 2017–18 season and the UEFA Europa Conference League since the 2021–22 season.

Kosovo football clubs has also been able to qualify for the UEFA Europa League from 2017–18 season to 2020–21 season, but due to the change by UEFA of the way of qualifying in competitions based on the country coefficient, then Kosovo football clubs are not able to participate in this competition due to the low country coefficient.
