On 11 May 2020, the Romanian Football Federation announced that the promotion format will be changed, especially due to the fact that no team (apart from the teams that were already excluded or dissolved) relegated from Liga III.
The promotion play-off system was changed from 21 two-legged matches in 14 groups of 3 teams, the winners of the groups and the best 7 ranked runners-up will be promoted to the third tier, 14 teams instead of 21.
At the end of the promotion tournament, a special table was made between 2nd places from the 14 groups.
A championship play-off tournament between the best three teams (after 16 rounds) was played to decide the county champion and the team that will qualify for promotion play-off to Liga III.
The teams started with all the records accumulated until the interruption of the regular season.
