The 2023 São Tomé and Príncipe Championship was the final stage of the top-flight football league in São Tomé and Príncipe, featuring qualifiers from the São Toméan league and the Príncipean league.

Seis de Setembro won their first championship in 35 years after defeating Operário 6–5 on penalties in the championship round.[1] The first leg in Tomé finished 1–1 as well.[2]

Seis de Setembro won the São Tomé championship on the last match day, winning their final match when they only needed a draw to ensure Agrosport de Monte Café finished second.[3]

São Tomé and Príncipe did not send any teams to either of the 2023–24 African club cup competitions.
