The 2021–22 Regionalliga was the 14th season of the Regionalliga, the tenth under the new format, as the fourth tier of the German football league system.

Format

According to the promotion rules decided upon in 2019, the Regionalliga Südwest and West received a direct promotion spot. Based on a rotation principle, the Regionalliga Bayern also received the third direct promotion spot this season, while the Regionalliga Nord and Nordost champions played a promotion play-off.^[1]

Regionalliga Nord

21 teams from the states of Bremen, Hamburg, Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein competed in the tenth season of the reformed Regionalliga Nord. VfB Lübeck was relegated from the 2020–21 3. Liga. Originally, SV Meppen was also relegated from the 3. Liga, but was spared after KFC Uerdingen did not receive a license.^[2] No teams were promoted from the 2020–21 Oberliga Niedersachsen, 2020–21 Oberliga Hamburg, 2020–21 Bremen-Liga or 2020–21 Schleswig-Holstein-Liga since the seasons were abandoned.

The league was split into two regional groups again.^[3] The composition of the groups was retained from the previous season, with the exception of Lüneburger SK Hansa, who were moved to the southern group to balance out the group sizes.
