Before starting the qualification process, some small revisions to the IBSA Judo rules were made, which will be valid till the end of the Paralympic Games in Paris 2024.

The new IBSA Judo rules can be checked here, but two of the main changes are:

• * The manner of Escort of the J1 judoka. This method has been extensively tested at the last three Grand Prix (Antalya, Nur-Sultan and São Paulo);
• * The Sonomama-Yoshi rule has been slightly modified and is now also for the hearing impaired athletes, equivalent to the IJF rule.

The document has also been slightly modified in a more logical order.
