==Format==
Starting from this edition, League C was reduced from thirteen to nine teams which were split into three groups of three teams instead the four groups of previous editions. The teams competed on a home-and-away [[Round-robin tournament|round-robin basis]] within each group, with matches being played in the official FIFA match windows in September, October and November 2023. The first-placed team of each group and the best second-placed team among all groups were promoted to the [[2024–25 CONCACAF Nations League B]].<ref name="2023-24 format"/>

==Teams==
A total of nine national teams contested League C. As a result of the reduction to 9 teams, there were no teams relegated from League B the previous season, so the nine teams that failed to be promoted last season conformed the League C for this edition.

===Team changes===
The following were the team changes of League C regarding the [[2022–23 CONCACAF Nations League A|2022–23 season]]:

The 2023–24 CONCACAF Nations League C was the third and lowest division of the 2023–24 edition of the CONCACAF Nations League, the third season of the international football competition involving the men's national teams of the 41 member associations of CONCACAF.[1] It was held from 7 September to 21 November 2023.[2][3]

Format

[edit]

Starting from this edition, League C was reduced from thirteen to nine teams which were split into three groups of three teams instead the four groups of previous editions. The teams competed on a home-and-away round-robin basis within each group, with matches being played in the official FIFA match windows in September, October and November 2023. The first-placed team of each group and the best second-placed team among all groups were promoted to the 2024–25 CONCACAF Nations League B.[1]

Teams

[edit]

A total of nine national teams contested League C. As a result of the reduction to 9 teams, there were no teams relegated from League B the previous season, so the nine teams that failed to be promoted last season conformed the League C for this edition.

Team changes

[edit]

The following were the team changes of League C regarding the 2022–23 season:
