The Campeonato Amapaense is the football league of the state of Amapá, Brazil.

Format

First Stage

  • Standard round-robin, in which all teams play each other once.
  • Single leg playoff between the top 2 teams. The winner of this playoff qualifies for the championship final.

Second Stage

  • Standard round-robin, in which all teams play each other once.
  • Single leg playoff between the top 2 teams. The winner of this playoff qualifies for the championship final.

Third stage (if necessary)

  • Home-and-away playoff with the winners of the first and second stages.

If a team wins both stages (first and second) it is crowned the champion. If not, the third stage is disputed, and the winner is crowned the champion.

The two teams last placed overall are relegated.

As in any other Brazilian soccer championship, the format can change every year.
