Kategoria e Tretë is the fourth and minimum professional level of football in Albania. Kategoria e Tretë has 19 teams participating, divided in 2 groups. Both group winners earn the right to be promoted to Albanian Second Division and winners of season-end final between the top teams of each group will also be the seasonal champions. Teams ranked in last spot will not relegate in any lower level, but can try again next season for promotion, or an improved ranking.
