The 2022 BWF World Tour (officially known as 2022 HSBC BWF World Tour for sponsorship reasons) was the fifth season of the BWF World Tour of badminton, a circuit of 26 tournaments which led up to the World Tour Finals tournament. The 27 tournaments were divided into five levels: Level 1 was the said World Tour Finals, Level 2 called Super 1000 (three tournaments), Level 3 called Super 750 (five tournaments), Level 4 called Super 500 (seven tournaments) and Level 5 called Super 300 (11 tournaments). Each of these tournaments offers different ranking points and prize money. The highest points and prize pool were offered at the Super 1000 level (including the World Tour Finals).
One other category of tournament, the BWF Tour Super 100 (level 6), also offered BWF World Tour ranking points. It was an important part of the pathway and entry point for players into the BWF World Tour tournaments. When the six Level 6 grade tournaments of the BWF Tour Super 100 were included, the complete tour consisted of 33 tournaments.
