Qualifying for the UEFA U-21 Championship 2007 began in May 2006.

Netherlands qualify as hosts and are exempt from qualifying. Of UEFA's 52 member countries, only the Faroe Islands chose not compete. That left 50 nations attempting to qualify for the 7 remaining spots at the finals.

The competition's structure is as follows:
#The 16 lowest ranked nations played-off (on a home-and-away basis) before the qualifying group stage, to eliminate 8 teams.
# The remaining 42 teams formed 14 three-team groups, each team playing one home match and one away match.
# The 14 group winners played-off (on a home-and-away basis) to decide the seven qualifying nations.

Preliminary Round

Teams went into the preliminary round already knowing who they would face should they get through.Team #1 played the first leg at home.
