The event was held for the first time, however, it was one of the six tournaments that were given single-year WTA 250 licenses in September and October 2022 due to the cancellation of tournaments in China during the 2022 season because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the suspension of tournaments in China following former WTA player Peng Shuai's allegation of sexual assault against a Chinese government official.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennis.com/news/articles/wta-fall-calendar-update-no-tournaments-in-china-new-1000-level-event-confirmed-|title=WTA fall calendar update: No tournaments in China, new 1000-level event confirmed in Guadalajara|website=tennis.com|date=16 May 2022}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.wtatennis.com/news/2384758/steve-simon-announces-wta-s-decision-to-suspend-tournaments-in-china|title=Steve Simon announces WTA's decision to suspend tournaments in China |website=wtatennis.com|date=3 December 2021}}
