# 2023 Russian National Swimming Championships

The 2023 Russian National Swimming Championships were held from 16 to 21 April 2023 at the Palace of Water Sports in Kazan, Russia. Competition was conducted in a 50-metre pool.
Events at the 50-metre and 100-metre distances were contested in a preliminaries, semifinals, finals format. Events in individual events at the 200-metre and 400-metre distances as well as relays were contested in preliminaries and finals format. Events at the 800-metre and 1500-metre distances were contested in a timed finals format with slower heats in the morning preliminaries session and the fastest heat contested in the evening semifinals and finals sessions. A second final, termed a b-final, was contested at the 50-metre, 100-metre, 200-metre, and 400-metre distances for individual events, in which only junior competitors were allowed to compete, year of birth 2005 or more recent for male competitors and year of birth 2006 or more recent for female competitors. Medalists were determined from the final open to all ages, termed the a-final.
Due to ongoing bans by LEN and World Aquatics on participation of Russians and Belarusians at their competitions, this 2023 edition of the Russian Championships was not a qualifying competition for Russians nor Belarusians for the LEN and World Aquatics competitions with qualifying time periods overlapping with the 2023 Championships.
