List of submissions to the 78th Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film

The following 63 films, all from different countries, were submitted for the 78th Academy Awards in the category Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film (release at the country of origin October 2004 - September 2005, ceremony March 2006). The bolded titles were the five nominated films.

Costa Rica, Iraq and Fiji submitted films for the first time.

Failed submissions

In addition to the above, Greece selected Brides, Uruguay selected Alma Mater, and Venezuela selected 1888: The Extraordinary Voyage of the Santa Isabel. The Greek film was ruled ineligible for being in English, and the other two did not make the preliminary deadline. However, all three films were chosen by their respective national film boards, and should be considered as their countries' national Foreign Film submissions.

Nepal elected to send Basain, but due to its release date, it was submitted the following year instead.

The Philippines failed to send a film for the first time in ten years; their Film Academy claimed they thought they hadn't been invited after the official invitation failed to reach their new address. Among the other countries which were officially invited to submit a film, but did not, were Afghanistan, Algeria, Australia, Ecuador, Egypt, Lebanon, Macedonia, Malaysia, Ukraine and the UK.
