The following 50 players will be invited:[2]

  • 4 places, one nominated by each of the four FIDE continental presidents;

In August 2021, FIDE announced the 40 top players by rating, as well as 20 reserves.[3]

The top four qualifiers by rating declined their invitations, including Aleksandra Goryachkina, Koneru Humpy and Ju Wenjun, who have no need to play, either through being Women's World Champion (Ju Wenjun), or having already qualified for the 2022 Women's Candidates Tournament. Goryachkina is instead playing in the Open Grand Swiss Tournament.
