It was contested by clubs whose football associations are affiliated with the Caribbean Football Union (CFU), a sub-confederation of CONCACAF.
The winners of the 2023 CONCACAF Caribbean Cup qualified to the 2024 CONCACAF Champions Cup Round of 16, and the second and third place teams qualified to Round One.[1][2]

Teams
Summarize
Perspective
Ten teams from five CFU member associations qualified for the football tournament. Eight teams from three nations qualified based on results from their domestic leagues and the remaining two teams qualified from the 2023 CONCACAF Caribbean Shield.[2][3][4]
Originally, Haiti had two berths reserved for its teams in the tournament.[5] However, the CONCACAF Council decided that Haitian clubs were not able to qualify and participate in the tournament as their domestic league is inactive since May 2021 due to the ongoing Haitian crisis.[6][7] As a result, the two Haitian berths were awarded one to Dominican Republic and one to Jamaica based on the performance of their clubs in the past five editions of the defunct Caribbean Club Championship.[2]
The entry berths were as follows:
- CONCACAF Caribbean Shield: 2 berths (champions and runners-up)
- Dominican Republic and Jamaica: 3 Berths
- Trinidad and Tobago: 2 berths
- Notes
- ^ Trinidad and Tobago (TRI): 2023 TT Premier Football League ends on 17 June 2023. Since CONCACAF announced Trinidadian teams will be confirmed on 28 May the top 2 placed teams as 2 June 2023 are qualified to the competition.[8]

Knockout stage
The knockout stage was played on a single-elimination tournament with the following rules:[11]
- Each tie was played on a home-and-away two-legged basis. The home team of the second leg in each tie was determined separately for each round as follows (Regulations Article 12.9):
- In the semi-finals, the group winners hosted the second leg.
- In the finals, the higher-ranked team based on total points accumulated in the group stage and semi-finals hosted the second leg.
- In the semi-finals, if tied on aggregate, the away goals rule would be used. If still tied, the penalty shoot-out would be directly used to determine the winners (Regulations Article 12.8.2).
- In the third place play-offs and finals, if tied on aggregate, the away goals rule would also be used. If still tied, 30 minutes of extra time would be played but the away goals scored during this time would not serve as a tie-breaking criteria. If still tied after extra time, the penalty shoot-out would be used to determine the winner (Regulations Article 12.8.3).
