All matches are played on the dates listed in the 2025-27 Women's National Team Match Calendar (see Annex A) in accordance with the FIFA Women’s International Match Calendar and Annex 1, Article 1bis of the FIFA Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players. Changes to these dates are not allowed unless so decided by the UEFA administration.
After each draw, the associations in each group or tie are responsible for agreeing on the fixtures. Fixture list guidelines, according to standard sporting principles, are indicated in Paragraph 29.03. In order to facilitate this process, the UEFA administration provides a provisional fixture list, including the match dates. Associations are subsequently requested to confirm, within a given deadline, the final fixtures for their group or tie. If the associations in a group or tie are unable to reach a unanimous agreement, the UEFA administration takes the final decision.
The provisional fixture lists are compiled according to the following guidelines.
