The champions of the 2018 1. deild, Ítróttarfelag Fuglafjarðar, replaced 07 Vestur, the last-placed team in the 2018 Faroe Islands Premier League.
It is the second consecutive season in which only one team went promoted from 1. deild, as they were the only non-reserve team in the top three.
Tvøroyrar Bóltfelag, FC Suðuroy and Royn ended their cooperation and TB replaced TB/FC Suðuroy/Royn.{{cite web|url=http://www.in.fo/news-detail/fotboltssamstarvid-i-suduroynni-er-lidugt-og-soega/|publisher=in.fo|title=Fótbóltssamstarvið í Suðuroynni er liðugt og søga|date=15 November 2018|access-date=11 January 2019|language=fo|archive-date=12 January 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190112150204/http://www.in.fo/news-detail/fotboltssamstarvid-i-suduroynni-er-lidugt-og-soega/|url-status=dead}}
