Format
In the first stage, each team will play the other eleven teams in a single round-robin tournament. The teams will be ranked according to points. If tied on points, the following criteria will be used to determine the ranking: 1. Wins; 2. Goal difference; 3. Goals scored; 4. Head-to-head points (only between two teams) 5. Fewest red cards; 6. Fewest yellow cards; 7. Draw. These criteria (except 4) will also be used to determine the overall performance in the final stages. The top eight teams will advance to the quarter-finals while the bottom two teams will be relegated to 2024 Campeonato Goiano da Divisão de Acesso.

The final stages will be played on a home-and-away two-legged basis. For the semi-finals and finals the best overall performance team will host the second leg. If the score is level, a penalty shoot-out will be used to determine the winners.

Champions will qualify for the 2024 Copa do Brasil and 2024 Copa Verde, while runners-up and third place will qualify for the 2024 Copa do Brasil. Top three teams not already qualified for 2024 Série A, Série B or Série C qualified for 2024 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D.
