The 2012–13 Croatian Football Cup was the twenty-second season of Croatia's football knockout competition. The defending champions were Dinamo Zagreb, having won their 12th title the previous year by defeating Osijek in the final.

The cup kicked off with the single-legged preliminary round which was scheduled on 29 August 2012. Most of the top flight clubs entered the competition in the following round, scheduled on 26 September 2012, with the exception of Lokomotiva, RNK Split and Zadar, as their cup coefficient (determined by their cup record over the last five seasons) was too low to skip the preliminary round.
