The 2022–23 Ligue 2, commonly known as 2022–23 Ligue 2 BKT for sponsorship reasons, was the 84th season of Ligue 2. It began on 30 July 2022 and ended on 5 June 2023. The league had a break from 12 November to 27 December due to the FIFA World Cup. Two clubs were to be promoted to Ligue 1 at the end of the season as the number of clubs in Ligue 1 was set to be reduced from 20 to 18 for the 2023–24 season. As a result, there were no play-offs held after the end of the regular season.

Notes:

The Bordeaux v Rodez match was abandoned in the first half after a Bordeaux supporter entered the pitch and shoved Rodez player Lucas Buádes, who fell to the ground. On 12 June, following an investigation, the LFP ruled the result before the match was suspended to stand and gave a one-point deduction for Bordeaux at the beginning of the 2023–24 season.
