Notes:

1. FC Kaan-Marienborn withdrew their senior team after this season due to not being able to fulfill future stadium requirements. Their reserve team, currently playing in the eleventh-tier Kreisliga C, will function as their new senior team from the 2023–24 season onwards. Due to this decision, only two teams (three if a 3. Liga team is relegated to the Regionalliga West) will be relegated to the Oberliga.^[6]

Relegation play-offs

Since SpVgg Unterhaching won the promotion play-offs, two spots were available in the next Regionalliga Bayern season, which went to the two winners of the first round. Had Unterhaching lost the promotion play-offs, only one spot would have been available, requiring a second play-off round between the winners of the first round. To avoid waiting times, the participating clubs had agreed to play the second round regardless of Unterhaching's performance in the promotion play-offs.^[12]
