Three best placed teams from Central American and the Caribbean zone and single winner from South American play-off will advance to the second round.
- Second round: Four teams advanced from the sub-zone pre-qualifiers will be joined by four teams eliminated from 2022 FIBA AmeriCup qualifiers. They will be divided into two groups of four teams. Group winners and runners-up will advance to qualifiers.
Qualifiers: The 12 teams that have qualified for the 2022 FIBA AmeriCup will be joined by four teams advanced from the pre-qualifiers.
- First round: The 16 teams will be divided into four groups of four teams to play home-and-away matches. Three best placed teams from a group will advance to the second round.
- Second round: The twelve teams will be divided into two groups of six teams. Each group will be formed from teams advanced from two first round groups.
