Kategoria e Dytë is the third level of football in Albania. It was called the Third Division until 2005. Kategoria e Dytë has two groups, A and B. which are divided geographically. Both groups have 14 teams each. The winners of each group earn the right to be promoted to the Albanian First Division and they also play a single final for seasonal champions. Teams which finish last in each group are relegated to the Albanian Third Division.
