Format

The 2023 Copa Chile is based on a system of direct elimination with double-legged ties, similar to the Copa del Rey. For this edition the competition had a format change, with clubs affiliated to ANFA (those from Tercera A, Tercera B and regional amateur leagues) being drawn into 13 ties in a first round, with the winners advancing to the newly-implemented regional stage where teams from Primera División, Primera B, and Segunda División Profesional will enter the competition. In the regional stage, the 64 participating teams were split into four geographical zones, in which they were drawn against a rival from their same zone.[2] In each zone, four rounds will be played: round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and the finals; the former three stages will be played as single-legged ties, whilst the latter will be a double-legged series. The four regional winners will then advance to the national stage, where they will play two semi-finals with their winners playing the final to decide the champion.[3]

Prizes

The champions of this edition will be entitled to earn the right to compete in the 2024 Copa Libertadores, taking the Chile 4 berth, and will also earn the right to play the 2024 Supercopa de Chile against the 2023 Campeonato Nacional champions.
