The 1968–69 Taça de Portugal was the 29th edition of the Taça de Portugal, a Portuguese football knockout tournament organized by the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF).
[2] Defending champions Porto were unable to regain the Taça de Portugal as they were defeated in the fourth round by eventual winners Benfica,[3] who went on to defeat Académica de Coimbra in the final and claim their thirteenth Taça de Portugal.
Due to the expansion of third-tier teams being able to participate in the competition, two legged first round cup ties were scrapped.
Due to the odd number of teams involved at this stage of the competition, Sporting CP qualified for the next round due to having no opponent to face at this stage of the competition.
Club sides Atlético Luanda, Ferroviário Lourenço Marques, Lusitânia, União da Madeira and União de Bissau were invited to participate in the competition.
