The Lebanese Third Division ({{langx|ar|الدوري اللبناني الدرجة الثالثة}}) is the third division of Lebanese football, and is controlled by the Lebanese Football Association.{{Cite web|url=http://www.goalzz.com/?c=16034|title=Lebanese League Third Division|website=www.goalzz.com|access-date=2019-03-08}}

The 23 teams are divided into four groups of six teams each (one group has 5 teams); the first two teams of each group qualify to the playoffs and the first two teams of these playoffs qualify to the Lebanese Second Division and replace the relegated teams. On the other hand, the last two teams will be submitted to the playoffs that will decide which two of these four teams will be relegated to the Lebanese Fourth Division.
