Jupiler Pro League 2023/24

Format:
- 30-game regular season, with the 16 teams meeting each other home and away. The top 6 will make Playoffs 1, the next 6 teams (7th through 12th) will make Playoffs 2, while the bottom 4 teams will play in Playoffs 3
- In both Playoffs 1 and Playoffs 2, the 6 teams in each group will meet their group opponents twice more (10 games). Points are halved following the regular season, rounded upwards in both Playoffs. In Playoffs 3, the 4 teams meet each other twice more as well (6 games), but points are maintained from the regular season.
- Following the Playoffs, the top 3 teams of Playoffs 1 qualify for Europe. The 4th (or 5th) placed team hosts the winner of Playoffs 2, providing the latter does not win the cup (in which no play-in match is held). In Playoffs 3, the bottom 2 clubs are relegated to the 1B Pro League, while the third from bottom team plays a 2-game playoff against the winner of 1B's promotion playoffs.

European qualification for 2024/25 UEFA Club Competitions*:
Champion: UEFA Champions League league phase
Runner Up: UEFA Champions League 3rd qualifying round non-champions path
Cup Winner: UEFA Europa League playoff round
Regular Season winner: UEFA Europa League 2nd qualifying round main path
European playoff winner: UEFA Europa Conference League 2nd qualifying round main path

* Depending on the performances of the Belgian teams in Europe across the 2023/24 UEFA club competition season, there lies a possibility that an extra automatic Champions League berth becomes available. Should this happen, some of the European places may be moved down one place as a result.

Teams in the 2022/23 Jupiler Pro League in the position they finished last season:

- Royal Antwerp
- KRC Genk
- Union St. Gilloise
- Club Brugge
- KAA Gent
- Cercle Brugge

2023/24 Challenger Pro League

Format:
- 30-game regular season with the 16 teams meeting each other home and away. Following the regular season, the top 2 teams will be promoted to the Jupiler Pro League, with the teams finishing third through sixth competing in playoffs. The bottom 2 teams will be relegated to Eerste Nationale. Note: U23 teams cannot be promoted, thus, should they finish in a top 6 spot, the next best (non U23) team will partake in the playoffs.
- In the playoffs, the teams will play in a knockout system, with the third place team meeting the sixth place team, and fourth meeting fifth. Both the semifinals and the final will be played over 2 legs, with the higher ranked team from the regular season hosting the second game. The winner of the playoffs will meet the second place team from Playoffs 3 in the Jupiler Pro League in a two-legged playoff for the last spot in the JPL next season.
