A total of 24 (out of 55) UEFA member national teams entered the qualifying stage, with Latvia making their debuts.

In the final tournament, the four qualified teams play in knockout format (semi-finals, third place match, and final), either at a host selected by UEFA from one of the teams, or at a neutral venue.

On 2 May 2022, UEFA replaced Russia with the second best-ranked runner-up of the preliminary round due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Each national team have to submit a squad of 14 players, two of whom must be goalkeepers.

In the semi-finals and final, extra time and penalty shoot-out are used to decide the winner if necessary; however, no extra time is used in the third place match (Regulations Article 16.02 and 16.03).
