The following point system was used to determine the B World Cup overall scores. At least for the individual competitions, the point allocation did not differ from the other competition series. It should be noted, however, that the season was divided into three periods, which were also decisive for the overall ratings. According to Article 4.1 of the regulations, only one athlete who was not eligible to compete in the World Cup in the previous period could become the overall winner. In addition, the article regulates the case of equality of points: "If two or more competitors have the same number of points in the final scoring, the order will be decided according to the highest number of individual wins or the next following placements." Positive or negative surcharge calculations must be taken into account which flowed into the individual evaluations and resulted in a confusing scoring scheme. The sum of the three competitors with the best points per competition from one and the same ski association was used together with the points from the team competitions for the national ranking.
The overall B World Cup winner received the big trophy, the sprint winner the small trophy. The athletes in ranks 1 to 6 were also awarded FIS medals.
