Subject to any appeals to be enacted, reprieves are required due to the following administrative decisions:
* Poissy and Évreux were excluded from National competitions by the DNCG, and will not take their place in National 3, having been relegated from 2022–23 Championnat National 2. Poissy appealed unsuccessfully against the decision.
* C'Chartres Football were administratively relegated to Régional 1, in addition to being relegated from 2022–23 Championnat National 2. The decision was confirmed on appeal.
* FC Sète 34 were placed into receivership, which automatically triggered an administrative relegation. Due to finishing in the 2022–23 Championnat National 2 relegation places, they will therefore be relegated at least to Régional 1.
* Cherbourg were excluded from National competitions by the Ligue de Normandie, and will be relegated to Régional 3.
* Sedan were excluded from national competition by the DNCG appeals committee, after unsuccessfully appealing their demotion from 2022–23 Championnat National.
Additionally:
* Canet Roussillon FC were initially administratively relegated to Régional 1, in addition to being relegated from 2022–23 Championnat National 2, but successfully appealed the decision.
