The 2003 UEFA Regions' Cup was the third UEFA Regions' Cup. It was held in Germany and won by the Piedmont team from Italy, which beat France's Maine 2–1 in the final.
The 40 teams entered were drawn into ten groups of four, with the following countries hosting each group's matches:
Six group winners qualified automatically, while the winners of four randomly drawn groups took part in a playoff for the two remaining places in the final tournament.
The intermediary playoffs were drawn at random when the preliminary groups were drawn. As there were ten groups but only eight places in the final tournament, four group winners had to play in the intermediary round. The winners of Group 2 were drawn to play the winners of Group 4, whilst Group 8 and Group 10's winners would play each other. The two legs were played in both competing teams' home regions.
