2023 Copa Sudamericana#First stage

On 19 December 2022, CONMEBOL announced format changes to the Copa Sudamericana starting from this edition while maintaining the same number of matches to be played. The following changes were implemented:

• The first stage of the tournament, where teams from all associations (except Argentina and Brazil) play against a team from their same association, was played over a single match instead of a home-and-away two-legged basis.
• The eight group runner-ups were not eliminated, but instead played a play-off round prior to the round of 16 against the eight third-placed teams of the Copa Libertadores group stage, which previously advanced directly to the round of 16. The winners of this round advanced to the round of 16 along with the Copa Sudamericana group winners.

The following 44 teams from the 10 CONMEBOL associations qualified for the tournament:{{cite web|url=https://cdn.conmebol.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Manual-de-Clubes-CS-2023-1.pdf|title=CONMEBOL Sudamericana / Manual de Clubes 2023|publisher=CONMEBOL.com|access-date=9 March 2023}}

• Argentina and Brazil: 6 berths each
• All other associations: 4 berths each

The entry stage is determined as follows:{{cite web|url=http://www.conmebol.com/es/se-viene-una-conmebol-sudamericana-mas-competitiva-y-representativa|title=Se viene una CONMEBOL Sudamericana más competitiva y representativa|publisher=CONMEBOL|date=2 October 2020}}

• First stage: 32 teams (teams from all other associations)
