Format

Prior to the final competition, the contestants participated in a preliminary competition consisting of closed-door interviews with the judges and a presentation show, during which they competed in the áo dài, national costume, swimwear, and evening gown segments.

The results of the preliminary competition, which included the swimwear and evening gown segments as well as the closed-door interviews, determined the twenty semifinalists. The winner of Miss BlockCharm automatically advanced to the top 10. The top 20 then competed in the swimwear competition, after which the field was narrowed down to 10 contestants. The top 10 subsequently competed in the evening gown competition before being reduced to six finalists.

The top 6 participated in a preliminary question-and-answer round, from which the final three contestants were selected. The final statement segment was reintroduced, after which Miss Charm 2023 and the two runners-up were announced.
