The Miss Universe Organization introduced several specific changes to the format for this edition. The number of semifinalists was reduced to thirteen— the lowest since ]. The results of the preliminary competition— which consisted of the swimsuit and evening gown competition, and the closed-door interview, determined the twelve semifinalists. Internet voting returned, with fans being able to vote for another delegate to advance into the semifinals, making the number of semifinalists thirteen.<ref name="Gonzales"/><ref name="top13revealed">{{cite news |date=January 30, 2017 |title=Miss Universe top 13 candidates revealed |work=The Manila Times |url=http://www.manilatimes.net/miss-universe-top-13-candidates-revealed/309639/ |url-status=live |access-date=January 30, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170202054521/http://www.manilatimes.net/miss-universe-top-13-candidates-revealed/309639/ |archive-date=February 2, 2017}}</ref> The thirteen semifinalists participated in the swimsuit competition, with nine advancing in the competition for the evening gown competition.

Format

The Miss Universe Organization introduced several specific changes to the format for this edition. The number of semifinalists was reduced to thirteen— the lowest since 2002. The results of the preliminary competition— which consisted of the swimsuit and evening gown competition, and the closed-door interview, determined the twelve semifinalists. Internet voting returned, with fans being able to vote for another delegate to advance into the semifinals, making the number of semifinalists thirteen. The thirteen semifinalists participated in the swimsuit competition, with nine advancing in the competition for the evening gown competition. Six finalists advanced to participate in the question and answer portion, while three finalists advanced to participate in the final question and the final walk.
