Format
editIn the first stage, each team played the other nine teams in a single round-robin tournament. Top four teams advanced to the semi-finals. The bottom two teams were relegated to the 2023 Campeonato Baiano Série B.
The final stage was played on a home-and-away two-legged basis with the best overall performance team hosting the second leg. If tied on aggregate, the penalty shoot-out would be used to determine the winners.[4]
Champions qualified for the 2023 Copa do Brasil and 2023 Copa do Nordeste, while runners-up and third place qualified for the 2023 Copa do Brasil. Top two teams not already qualified for 2023 Série A, Série B or Série C qualified for 2023 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D. As the 2022 Copa Governador was not held, the third Série D berth was awarded via Campeonato Baiano.[5]
