The 2016 Argentine Primera B Nacional was the 31st season of the Argentine second division. The season began in January and ended in July. Twenty-two teams competed in the league, sixteen returning from the 2015 season, two teams that were relegated from Primera División and four teams promoted from Federal A and B Metropolitana.

Competition format

The league's format has changed from last season. In this year there were twenty-two teams who played each other once in one Round-robin tournament. One team would be crowned as champion and automatically promoted to the Primera División. One team would be relegated at the end of the season.[http://canchallena.lanacion.com.ar/1857534-torneos-argentinos-2016-primera-nacional Cómo se jugarán los campeonatos argentinos en 2016] {{in lang|es}}
