The EHF coefficient rank is a list made by European Handball Federation. The list is a result of the clubs of the EHF member federations' results in the EHF Champions League (CL), EHF European League (EL), EHF Cup Winners' Cup (CWC) and EHF European Cup (EC) the past three seasons. Most national federations have five (four from 2012–13) teams in the above-mentioned competitions. There are, however, differences between which competitions they qualify for and in which round they enter. If a national federation has more than one team in the same competition, they may enter the same competition in different rounds. For example, the national federations that have two teams in the women's Champions League: The national champions qualify directly for the group stage, while the runners-up start in the qualification round.

On 27 September 2022, the EHF Executive Committee announced new changes in the official coefficient ranking system at a meeting in Luxembourg. The new system includes separate rankings for the EHF Champions League and the EHF European League, in which a three-part rankings system will reflect the performance of each federation in the respective competition more properly.[1]
