Format

The clubs play each other within their group, with two from each group qualifying for the semi-finals of the first round. In the second round the clubs play against clubs from the other group, with two from each group qualifying for the semi-finals of the second round. If each stage has a separate winner there will be a match between the winners of each round to see who will be the champion.

The worst two teams are relegated to Second Division.

The champion qualifies to the 2017 Copa Verde. The champion, the runner-up and the 3rd-placed team qualify to the 2017 Copa do Brasil. The best team who isn't on Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, Série B or Série C qualifies for Série D.
