It will be held once again under the two stages with simultaneous Q-School events in the UK and Germany.
First Stage will take place between January 9-11, with players then progressing to the Final Stage between January 12-15.
There will be eight players on each day qualify for the Final Stage, with the rest of the players claiming Order of Merit spots.
There will also be players already in the Final Stage who have lost their Tour Card in 2021 or finished second to fourth in the Challenge or Development Tour.
While the top eight from both the Women's Series and Nordic and Baltic Order of Merit will receive free entry.
For UK Q-School, only players from both the UK, Ireland and Gibraltar are permitted to play, while in Niedernhausen, all European players are involved. For other countries, they can pick but with Covid-19 travel restrictions, the PDC could change player plans.
