contents Constraint satisfaction or optimisation models -- even if they are formulated in high-level modelling languages -- need to be reduced into an equivalent format before they can be solved by the use of Quantum Computing. In this paper we show how Boolean and integer FlatZinc builtins over finite-domain integer variables can be equivalently reformulated as linear equations, linear inequalities or binary products of those variables, i.e. as finite-domain quadratic integer programs. Those quadratic integer programs can be further transformed into equivalent Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimisation problem models, i.e. a general format for optimisation problems to be solved on Quantum Computers especially on Quantum Annealers.
