The 2005–06 Liga de Fútbol Profesional Boliviano was the first Bolivian football league to use the European calendar format. However, it was quickly changed after issues with relegation occurring in the middle of the season instead of the end.
Torneo Apertura
editThe first part of the season was divided into two groups. The top three of each group advanced to a final group stage known as the Hexagonal Final.

Promotion/relegation

Universidad Iberoamericana was relegated and Destroyers played a promotion relegation playoff against Guabirá. Universitario was promoted to the Torneo Clausura.
