The 2016 Copa do Brasil will be the 28th edition of the Copa do Brasil football competition. The competition will be contested by 86 teams, either qualified through participitating their respective state championships (70), by the 2016 CBF ranking (10) or those qualified for 2015 Copa Libertadores (5) and the team with the best 2015 Série A record (excluding those qualified for 2016 Copa Libertadores).

Format
The competition is a single elimination knockout tournament featuring two-legged ties. In the first two rounds, if the away team wins the first match by 2 or more goals, it progresses straight to the next round avoiding the second leg. The away goals rule is also used in the Copa do Brasil, with the exception of finals. The winner qualifies for the 2017 Copa Libertadores.
Qualified teams
The teams in bold are qualified directly for the round of 16.
Draw
A draw for the first round was held by CBF on January 11, 2016, 14:30 BRST. The 80 qualified teams were divided in eight groups (A-H) with 10 teams each. That division was based on the 2016 CBF ranking and the matches were drawn from the respective confronts: A vs. E; B vs. F; C vs. G; D vs. H. The lower ranked teams of each match will host the first leg. Before the round of 16 there will be another draw including the six teams directly qualified to the round of 16. All draws will be held at CBF headquarters in Rio de Janeiro.

Knockout stages
<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
A draw by CBF will be held to set the matches for this round. The 16 qualified teams will be divided in two pots (1-2). Teams from pot 1 are the six teams directly qualified to the round of 16, the five teams that competed at the 2016 Copa Libertadores and the best placed team in the 2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A not taking part in the 2016 Copa Libertadores, plus the two highest CBF ranked teams in 2016 qualified via the third round. Pot 2 is composed of the other teams that qualified through the third round. Each pot was divided into 4 pairs according to the CBF ranking. That division makes sure that each team within a pair will not face each other before the finals as they will be placed in opposite sides of the bracket. A draw will decide the home team of the round of 16. The following stages will have other draws to determine the order of the matches as the tournament advances. All draws will be held at CBF headquarters in Rio de Janeiro.
