Liga IV Brașov is one of the regional football divisions of Liga IV, the fourth tier of the Romanian football league system, for clubs based in Brașov County, and is organized by AJF Brașov – Asociația Județeană de Fotbal ().
It is contested by a variable number of teams, depending on the number of teams relegated from Liga III, the number of teams promoted from Liga V Brașov, and the teams that withdraw or enter the competition. The winner may or may not be promoted to Liga III, depending on the result of a promotion play-off contested against the winner of a neighboring county series.
History In 1968, following the new administrative and territorial reorganization of the country, each county established its own football championship, integrating teams from the former regional championships as well as those that had previously competed in town and rayon level competitions. The freshly formed Brașov County Championship was placed under the authority of the newly created Consiliul Județean pentru Educație Fizică și Sport () in Brașov County.
Since then, the structure and organization of Brașov's main county competition, like those of other county championships, have undergone numerous changes. Between 1968 and 1992, it was known as Campionatul Județean (County Championship). In 1992, it was renamed Divizia C – Faza Județeană (Divizia C – County Phase), became Divizia D in 1997, and has been known as Liga IV since 2006.
Promotion The champions of each county association play against one another in a play-off to earn promotion to Liga III. Geographical criteria are taken into consideration when the play-offs are drawn. In total, there are 41 county champions plus the Bucharest municipal champion.
