The 1992–93 National Division 4 South was the sixth full season of rugby union within the fourth tier of the English league system, currently known as National League 2 South.
By the end of the campaign Sudbury were crowned league champions, 2 points clear of runners-up London Welsh. Impending changes to the league structure by the RFU meant that several new leagues were to be introduced. This meant that champions Sudbury were promoted into the newlook 1993–94 National Division 4, clubs ranked 2nd to 12th fell to the new 1993–94 National Division 5 South and Thurrock dropped two levels down to London & SE Division 1.
Structure Each team played one match against each of the other teams, playing a total of twelve matches each. Changes to the league structure by the RFU for the 1993-94 season meant that the champions are promoted to National Division 4, clubs ranked 2nd to 12th fell to National Division 5 South and the bottom club two levels to either London & SE Division 1 or South West Division 1 depending on locality.
