Movement between 3. Liga and Regionalliga
The champions of the three 2008–09 Regionalliga divisions were promoted to the 2009–10 3. Liga. These were Holstein Kiel (North), Borussia Dortmund II (West) and 1. FC Heidenheim 1846 (South).
VfR Aalen and Stuttgarter Kickers were relegated from the 2008–09 3. Liga after finishing the season in the bottom two places. 18th-placed Wacker Burghausen were eventually spared from relegation after 5th-placed Kickers Emden voluntarily retracted their application for a license because of financial issues.[1] Since Emden did not apply for a Regionalliga license, they were eventually moved to the fifth-tier Oberliga Niedersachsen.
Movement between Regionalliga and fifth-level leagues
Altona 93, Sachsen Leipzig, Energie Cottbus II (all North), BV Cloppenburg, 1. FC Kleve (both West), TSV Großbardorf and SpVgg Unterhaching II (both South) were relegated at the end of the 2008–09 season. Furthermore, FSV Oggersheim (West) and Viktoria Aschaffenburg (South) withdrew from the league due to financial issues.
The relegated teams were replaced by teams from the fifth-level leagues of the German league pyramid and allocated to one of the three divisions. SC Goslar 08 as winners of a round between the champions of the fifth-level leagues on the territory of the former Oberliga Nord, Tennis Borussia Berlin as NOFV-Oberliga Nord champions and ZFC Meuselwitz as winners of the NOFV-Oberliga Süd joined the Northern division. NRW-Liga champions Bonner SC and runners-up Fortuna Düsseldorf II, along with Oberliga Südwest champions 1. FC Saarbrücken were included to the Western division. Finally, SG Sonnenhof Großaspach as winners of the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg, SpVgg Weiden as Bayernliga champions and FC Bayern Alzenau as Hessenliga runners-up were added to the Southern division; Alzenau were granted promotion because Hessenliga champions SC Waldgirmes were not able to meet the necessary licensing criteria.
Movement between divisions
In order to achieve a size of eighteen teams for each division, Waldhof Mannheim were moved from the Southern to the Western division for this season.
