- ^ French Guiana (GUF): The 2021–22 French Guiana Régional 1 was abandoned. Since AS Étoile Matoury finished with the best record in league, they clinched a spot to the tournament.
- ^ Trinidad and Tobago (TRI): 2023 TT Premier Football League ends on June 17, 2023. Since CONCACAF announced Trinidadian teams will be confirmed on May 28, the third placed team as June 2, 2023 is qualified to the competition.[5]
Group stage
In the group stage, each group is played on a round-robin basis with teams playing against each other once, for a total of three matches per team.
After single round-robin play, the group winners (four teams in total) will advance to the Semifinals.
The Semifinal winners (two clubs) will dispute the tournament's final and secure a berth in the 2023 CONCACAF Caribbean Cup, which will serve as an opportunity to qualify for the 2024 CONCACAF Champions Cup.
All match times are in AST (UTC−4) and local times are in parentheses, as listed by CONCACAF.
