2005–06 Albanian Cup (Albanian: Kupa e Shqipërisë) was the fifty-fourth season of Albania's annual cup competition. It began on 28 August 2005 with the preliminary round and ended on 10 May 2006 with the Final match. The winners of the competition qualified for the 2006-07 first qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League. Teuta were the defending champions, having won their third Albanian Cup last season. The cup was won by KF Tirana.

The rounds were played in a two-legged format similar to those of European competitions. If the aggregated score was tied after both games, the team with the higher number of away goals advanced. If the number of away goals was equal in both games, the match was decided by extra time and a penalty shootout, if necessary.
