The 2022–23 UEFA Champions League qualifying phase and play-off round began on 21 June and ended on 24 August 2022.[1]
A total of 52 teams competed in the qualifying system of the 2022–23 UEFA Champions League, which included the qualifying phase and the play-off round, with 42 teams in Champions Path and 10 teams in League Path. The six winners in the play-off round (four from Champions Path, two from League Path) advanced to the group stage, to join the 26 teams that enter in the group stage.[2]
Times are CEST (UTC+2), as listed by UEFA (local times, if different, are in parentheses).
The Champions Path included all league champions which did not qualify directly for the group stage, and consisted of the following rounds:
All teams eliminated from the Champions Path entered either the Europa League or the Europa Conference League:

Each tie, apart from the preliminary round, was played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that scored more goals on aggregate over the two legs advanced to the next round. If the aggregate score was level at the end of normal time of the second leg, extra time was played, and if the same number of goals were scored by both teams during extra time, the tie was decided by a penalty shoot-out.[4]
In the preliminary round, the semi-finals and final were played as a single match hosted by one of the participating teams. If the score was level at the end of normal time, extra time was played, and if the same number of goals were scored by both teams during extra time, the tie was decided by a penalty shoot-out.
The 2022–23 season saw the video assistant referee (VAR) used for the first time during the qualification phase following its introduction in the third qualifying round.[5]
In the draws for each round, teams were seeded based on their UEFA club coefficients at the beginning of the season, with the teams divided into seeded and unseeded pots containing the same number of teams. A seeded team was drawn against an unseeded team, with the order of legs (or the administrative "home" team in the preliminary round matches) in each tie decided by draw. As the identity of the winners of the previous round was not known at the time of the draws, the seeding was carried out under the assumption that the team with the higher coefficient of an undecided tie advanced to this round, which means if the team with the lower coefficient was to advance, it simply took the seeding of its opponent. Prior to the draws, UEFA formed "groups" in accordance with the principles set by the Club Competitions Committee, but they were purely for convenience of the draw and did not resemble any real groupings in the sense of the competition. Teams from associations with political conflicts as decided by UEFA should not be drawn into the same tie. After the draws, the order of legs of a tie could be reversed by UEFA due to scheduling or venue conflicts.
The schedule of the competition was as follows (all draws were held at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland).[1]
| Round | Draw date | First leg | Second leg |
|---|---|---|---|
| Preliminary round | 7 June 2022 | 21 June 2022 (semi-finals) | 24 June 2022 (final) |
| First qualifying round | 14 June 2022 | 5–6 July 2022 | 12–13 July 2022 |
| Second qualifying round | 15 June 2022 | 19–20 July 2022 | 26–27 July 2022 |
| Third qualifying round | 18 July 2022 | 2–3 August 2022 | 9 August 2022 |
| Play-offs | 2 August 2022 | 16–17 August 2022 | 23–24 August 2022 |
The preliminary round consisted of two semi-finals on 21 June 2022 and the final on 24 June 2022. The draw for the preliminary round was held on 7 June 2022.
A total of four teams played in the preliminary round. Seeding of teams was based on their 2022 UEFA club coefficients,[3] with two seeded teams and two unseeded teams in the semi-finals. The matches took place at VíkingsvöllurinReykjavík, Iceland so the first team drawn in each tie in the semi-finals, and also the final (between the two winners of the semi-finals, whose identity was not known at the time of draw), would be the "home" team for administrative purposes.

A total of 30 teams played in the first qualifying round: 29 teams which enter in this round, and 1 winner of the preliminary round.

Prior to the draw, UEFA formed three groups of five seeded teams and five unseeded teams in accordance with the principles set by the Club Competitions Committee.
