First stage

In the first stage, each team will play the other nine teams in a single round-robin tournament. The teams will be ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, and 0 points for a loss). If tie on points, the following criteria will be used to determine the ranking: 1. Wins; 2. Goal difference; 3. Goals scored; 4. Fewest red cards; 5. Fewest yellow cards; 6. Draw in the headquarters of the FPF.

Top two teams will advance to the semi-finals of the final stages, while teams from third to sixth places will advance to the quarter-finals. The four teams with the lowest number of points will play a relegation stage.[3]

The best team not qualified for the finals will qualify for 2022 Copa do Brasil. Top two teams not already qualified for 2022 Série A, Série B or Série C will qualify for 2022 Série D.
