The Primera D was one of two leagues that form the fifth division of the Argentine football league system. Made up of 11 clubs from Buenos Aires Province, the league is the only one that remains amateur.Marcha atrás en el Ascenso: no se juega la fecha de la B Metropolitana y la Primera C, Clarín, 4 Mar 2017 The other league at level five is the Torneo Federal C, where teams from regional leagues take part.

It was created in 1950 under the name "Tercera de Ascenso" ("third level of promotion"). The first champion was Liniers. In 1962 the tournament changed its name to "Primera de Aficionados", which lasted to 1974, when it was called "Primera D", which has remained to date.Argentina fourth level champions - RSSSF

Since the restructuring of the league system in 1986, the division became the fifth category of Argentine football (lower than Primera División, Primera B Nacional, Primera B Metropolitana and Primera C).Campeones de la Quinta División (1986-), AFA website (Archive, 2013-08-13)

In 2023 its last edition was held because from 2024, the category was unified with the Primera C in a single tournament._la AFA confirmó la unificación de la Primera C y la D

Format The winners of Primera D gain automatic promotion to Primera C. The club finishing in 2nd to 9th place behind enter a playoff series; the winner of which faces the club finishing second bottom in Primera C in a promotion/relegation playoff.
