The 2022 Emperor's Cup (Emperor's Cup JFA 102nd Japan Football Championship (Japanese: 天皇杯 JFA 第102回全日本サッカー選手権大会)) was the 102nd edition of the annually contested cup, taking place from 21 May to 16 October.{{cite web|url=https://www.jfa.jp/match/emperorscup_2022/about.html|title=About the 2022 Emperor's Cup|access-date=25 April 2022|language=ja}} The final was played at the Nissan Stadium, in Yokohama, Kanagawa. The stadium returned to host an Emperor's Cup final for the first time since 2014.

The 2022 Emperor's Cup followed a different pattern to the previous three editions of the tournament, being restored to its old, usual format, which was applied for the last time in the 2018 Emperor's Cup. It features 88 teams, representing the prefectural football associations, the J1 League, and the J2 League. Honda FC was awarded a seeded entry as the JFA's annually specially-designated amateur club, in order to turn the quantity of teams in the First Round to an even number.{{cite web|url=http://www.jfa.jp/news/00028695/|title=About the regulations and rules to be applied at the 2022 Emperor's cup|publisher=Japan Football Association|language=ja}}

Urawa Red Diamonds were the defending champions, but were eliminated by Thespakusatsu Gunma in the third round. Ventforet Kofu won their first major title over Sanfrecce Hiroshima and qualified for the 2023–24 AFC Champions League group stage.

Qualifying rounds

As only J1 and J2 League clubs qualify directly for the First Round, the other Emperor's Cup candidate teams (exception being made to the JFA-seeded teams), have to undergo a prefectural qualification, with regulaments and schedules varying from one association to another. In total, there are 47 prefectural cup qualifications, with the winners of each prefectural cup earning their right to play in the First Round of the Emperor's Cup. This year, a total of 2,342 teams played in the aforementioned prefectural qualifications. The following boxes shows each result of the 47 prefectural finals of the 2022 Emperor's Cup Prefectural Qualification Cup.{{cite web|url=https://www.jfa.jp/news/00029431/|title=North Asia University qualified for the JFA 102nd Emperor's Cup|language=ja|access-date=25 April 2022}}{{cite web|url=https://www.jfa.jp/news/00029468/|title=5 more clubs qualified for the Emperor's Cup|language=ja|access-date=25 April 2022}}{{cite web|url=http://jfa.jp/news/00029591/|title=Held opening press conference about Emperor's Cup JFA 102nd All Japan Soccer Championship|website=jfa.jp|language=ja|access-date=17 May 2022|date=17 May 2022}}
