The 2019–20 Regionalliga was the twelfth season of the Regionalliga, the eighth under the new format, as the fourth tier of the German football league system.
Format
The same promotion format as in the previous season was used.{{cite web|title=Änderung der Aufstiegsregelung in der Regionalliga beschlossen|website=dfb.de|url=https://www.dfb.de/news/detail/aenderung-der-aufstiegsregelung-in-der-regionalliga-beschlossen-179343/|publisher=DFB|access-date=19 April 2018|date=8 December 2017|lang=de}} According to the draw that took place on 27 April 2018, the Regionalliga Nord, Südwest, and Bayern champions were directly promoted to the 2020–21 3. Liga, while the champions of the Regionalliga Nordost and West played promotion play-offs to determine the fourth team to be promoted.{{cite news |url=https://www.dfb.de/news/detail/auslosung-der-aufstiegsspiele-saarbruecken-gegen-bayern-meister-185845/ |title=Auslosung der Aufstiegsspiele: Saarbrücken gegen Bayern-Meister |trans-title=Draw of the promotion play-offs: Saarbrücken against Bayern champions |website=DFB.de |publisher=German Football Association |date=27 April 2018 |access-date=27 April 2018 |lang=de}}
Effects of the COVID-19 pandemic
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Germany, all scheduled match days in the five Regionalligas were initially suspended in March 2020. The Bavarian Football Association (BFV) announced its decision to suspend all scheduled match days indefinitely on 4 March 2020.{{cite news|url=https://www.bfv.de/news/andere-news/2020/03/coronavirus-spielbetrieb-in-bayern-ausgesetzt|title=Spielbetrieb in Bayern bis mindestens 23.

The Regionalliga Südwest was cancelled on 26 May 2020. 1. FC Saarbrücken were declared champions and were promoted to the 3. Liga, while no teams were relegated and four teams were promoted from the Oberliga, leading to an expansion of the league for the upcoming season.{{cite web|url=https://www.kicker.de/abbruch_in_der_regionalliga_suedwest_saarbruecken_steigt_auf-776283/artikel|title=Abbruch in der Regionalliga Südwest: Saarbrücken steigt auf|website=Kicker|publisher=kicker|date=26 May 2020|access-date=26 May 2020|lang=de}}
The Regionalliga Nordost was also cancelled on 5 June 2020. Lokomotive Leipzig were declared champions and qualified for the promotion play-offs, while no teams were relegated based on sporting criteria and two teams were promoted from the NOFV-Oberliga, leading to an expansion of the league for the upcoming season. Rot-Weiß Erfurt had been placed into administration on 29 January 2020 and was therefore relegated to the NOFV-Oberliga.{{cite web|url=https://www.kicker.de/nofv_ernennt_lok_leipzig_zum_regionalliga_meister-776932/artikel|title=NOFV ernennt Lok Leipzig zum Regionalliga-Meister|website=Kicker|publisher=kicker|date=5 June 2020|access-date=5 June 2020|lang=de}} On 25 June 2020, Wacker Nordhausen was voluntarily relegated to the Oberliga after filing for insolvency in December.{{cite web|url=https://www.kicker.de/insolvenz_nordhausen_zieht_sich_aus_regionalliga_zurueck-778430/artikel|title=Insolvenz: Nordhausen zieht sich aus Regionalliga zurück|website=Kicker|publisher=kicker|date=26 June 2020|access-date=26 June 2020|lang=de}}
The Regionalliga Bayern clubs voted on 4 June 2020 to extend their league season beyond September, which meant the Bavarian Football Association had to cancel the 2020–21 season and continue without Türkgücü München,{{cite web |url=https://www.bfv.de/news/3.-liga/bfv-meldet-turkgucu-munchen-fur-dritte-liga |title=BFV meldet Türkgücü München für dritte Liga |website=bfv.de |publisher=Bavarian Football Association |date=21 June 2020 |access-date=22 June 2020 |lang=de}} which the BFA registered for promotion to the 3. Liga. Thus, Bavaria is to be represented by a team that wins a play-off series, to be held in the spring of 2021, among the top four teams at the end of the resumed Regionalliga Bayern season. They would have already submitted applications for 3. Liga licences. The Bavarian play-off winners are to face the Regionalliga Nord champions for a place in the 2021–22 3. Liga.{{cite news |url=https://www.kicker.de/regionalliga_loesung_mit_signalwirkung_keine_saison_20_21_in_bayern-776903/artikel |title=Regionalliga-Lösung mit Signalwirkung: Keine Saison 20/21 in Bayern |work=kicker |lang=de |date=5 June 2020 |access-date=13 June 2020}}{{cite web |url=https://www.fupa.net/berichte/regionalliga-bayern-ligapokal-best-of-5-modus-und-wohl-keine-2660696.html |title=Ligapokal, "Best of 5-Modus" und wohl keine Saison 20/21 |work=FuPa |lang=de |date=4 June 2020 |access-date=13 June 2020}}
The Regionalliga West was curtailed on 20 June 2020. SV Rödinghausen were declared champions. Since they did not apply for a 3. Liga licence, second-placed SC Verl qualified for the promotion play-offs, while no teams were relegated based on sporting criteria and three teams were promoted from the Oberliga, leading to an expansion of the league for the upcoming season. SG Wattenscheid had been placed into administration on 23 October 2019 and was therefore relegated to the Oberliga.{{cite web|url=https://www.kicker.de/regionalliga_west_wird_abgebrochen_verl_spielt_um_aufstieg-777982/artikel|title=Regionalliga West wird abgebrochen - Verl spielt um Aufstieg|website=Kicker|publisher=kicker|date=20 June 2020|access-date=20 June 2020|lang=de}}
The Regionalliga Nord was terminated on 25 June 2020. VfB Lübeck were declared champions and were promoted to the 3. Liga, while no teams were relegated and five teams were promoted from the Oberliga, leading to an expansion of the league for the upcoming season.{{cite web|url=https://www.kicker.de/saisonabbruch_in_der_regionalliga_nord_luebeck_steigt_auf-778421/artikel|title=Saisonabbruch in der Regionalliga Nord: Lübeck steigt auf|website=Kicker|publisher=kicker|date=25 June 2020|access-date=25 June 2020|lang=de}}

18 teams from Bavaria competed in the eighth season of the Regionalliga Bayern. Türkgücü München and TSV Rain am Lech were promoted from the 2018–19 Bayernliga Süd and TSV Aubstadt was promoted from the 2018–19 Bayernliga Nord.
After the Bavarian association cancelled the 2020–21 season, which would have been the ninth for the Regionalliga Bayern, and enrolled Türkgücü München in the 3. Liga, the ongoing season had to resume without Türkgücü in September 2020 and conclude in mid-2021.
