11 S.League clubs and 4 invited foreign teams play in this edition. The cup was a single-elimination tournament, with all sixteen teams playing from the first round. The first round involved one-off matches. Subsequent rounds involved ties of two legs.[1]

The Courts Young Lions and Malaysia's Harimau Muda, both of whom are Great Eastern-YEO'S S.League participant teams, have requested and received permission to sit out of the RHB Singapore Cup, due to their respective preparations for the AFC Under-22 Asian Cup qualifiers in June.

The first round kicked off on 14 May 2012.[2] The quarter-finals will be held from 2 to 9 July 2012. The finals will be held at Jalan Besar Stadium on 28 October 2012

The cup winner qualified for the 2013 AFC Cup.
