The2022–23Coupe de France was the 106th season of the main football cup competition ofFrance. The competition was organised by theFrench Football Federation (FFF) and was open to all clubs inFrench football, as well as clubs from theoverseas departments and territories (Guadeloupe,French Guiana,Martinique,Mayotte,New Caledonia,Tahiti,Réunion,Saint Martin, andSaint Pierre and Miquelon).

Nantes were the defending champions, having beatenNice 1–0 in theprevious year's final to claim their fourth Coupe de France title.^[1][2]Toulouse defeated Nantes 5–1 in the2023 final for a first Coupe de France title.

Dates for the first two qualifying rounds, and any preliminaries required, were set by the individual Regional leagues. From round three, the FFF defined the calendar, with rounds up to and including the round of 32 being scheduled for weekends and later rounds up to, but not including, the final, taking place on midweek evenings. Due to the2022 FIFA World Cup taking place in November and December, it was necessary to bring forward the eighth round by a week, compared to previous seasons, impacting the scheduling of earlier rounds. Similarly the timeline of rounds from the round of 64 onwards was compressed.^[3]

The first six rounds, and any preliminaries required, were organised by the Regional Leagues and the Overseas Departments/Territories, who allowed teams from within their league structure to enter at any point up to the third round. Teams fromChampionnat National 3 entered at the third round, those fromChampionnat National 2 entered at the fourth round and those fromChampionnat National entered at the fifth round.^[4]

The number of teams entering each qualifying round was as follows:

The 145 qualifiers from the Regional Leagues were joined by the 10 qualifiers from the Overseas Territories and 202022–23 Ligue 2 teams.^[5] The qualifiers from Réunion, Martinique, Guadeloupe and French Guiana played off in internal matches.^[4]

The team from Tahiti played their seventh round tie at home. On 18 October 2022 the list of National, National 2 and National 3 clubs who had put themselves forward as candidates for overseas travel was published. Teams not selected were included in the draw for overseas travel in the eighth round, should they have qualified.^[8]

The eighth round ties for mainland matches was made at the same time as the seventh round draw. Matches including the teams from Martinique and Guadeloupe were slotted into the draw where gaps appear due to teams being selected to travel overseas.

The winners of the seventh round matches in Réunion and French Guiana played their eighth round match at home against teams from mainland France. A draw on 18 October 2022 prioritised the list of clubs for these fixtures, should they win their seventh round games.^[9]FCM Aubervilliers andÉvreux FC 27 were the highest in the list to qualify for the eighth round.

The 44 qualifying teams from Round 8 were joined by the 202022–23 Ligue 1 teams. 32 ties were drawn in regional groups.^[4]

Later rounds were open draws with no regional grouping.

The draw for the seventh round took place in multiple stages:

• The seventh round in Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana and Réunion will take place between the two qualifying teams from each territory, and were drawn and scheduled by the local league.
• The Overseas tie involving the team from Tahiti was drawn separately on 18 October 2022, against a team from the list of those willing to travel.^[8]
• Mainland teams were divided into ten groups, by geography and to ensure the groups are balanced in terms of the levels of the teams.^[10] The draw took place on 19 October 2022.^[11]
