Teams are divided into two groups, with Group A playing in Romania, and Group B playing in Spain. The winner of each group will be promoted to Division I for the 2010 IIHF World U20 Championship, while the last place teams in each group were saved from relegation to Division III for the 2010 IIHF World U20 Championship due to 2009's Division III tournament being cancelled.
