The cup was suspended after the quarter-final stage due to the COVID-19 pandemic in French Polynesia. Initially it was decided to resume the competition in September 2020.[5] However, on 27 May 2020 following new consultation with the clubs, the competition was cancelled, and Tiare Tahiti, who were at third place of the 2019–20 Tahiti Ligue 1 at the time of suspension, qualified for the 2020–21 Coupe de France seventh round as the representative of Tahiti, which would originally be awarded to the winners of the 2019–20 Tahiti Cup.[6]
