The 1991–92 2. Bundesliga season was the eighteenth season of the 2. Bundesliga, the second tier of the German football league system. It was the first season in which the league contained clubs from former East Germany.

Bayer 05 Uerdingen and 1. FC Saarbrücken were promoted to the Bundesliga while Blau-Weiß 90 Berlin, BSV Stahl Brandenburg, TSV 1860 München, Hallescher FC and FC Rot-Weiß Erfurt were relegated to the Oberliga.

Set up

Locations of the participating teams of the 1991-92 season: Northern division (blue), Southern division (red).

As a result of the assimilation of six teams from the former East German Oberliga, the league was split into two groups - north and south.

In each area, a normal round robin league (22 games) was firstly completed. After this the leagues were divided in half, forming a championship division and a relegation division which saw a final round of games between the teams (10 games). The two winners of the championship divisions were promoted to the Bundesliga while the two last placed teams in each of the relegation division were relegated. The two third-last teams in each relegation division entered a further round with the runners-up of the Oberliga Nord.

North

For the 1991–92 season FC Remscheid was newly promoted to the 2. Bundesliga Nord from the Oberliga while Bayer 05 Uerdingen, Hertha BSC and FC St. Pauli had been relegated to the league from the Bundesliga. BSV Stahl Brandenburg entered the league from the NOFV-Oberliga.
