The clubs are sorted by their geographical location in Libya. Groups A & B contain 23 teams that hail from Tripoli, Misrata, Zawiya and Sabha. Groups C & D contain 22 teams that hail from Benghazi, Sirte, Jabal al Akhdar and Al Butnan.

The top two in each group progress to the Final Qualification stage, making 8 teams. These eight teams will be placed in one group, and will play each other, home and away, to determine the two clubs that win promotion to the Libyan Premier League for the 2009-10 season. The club that finishes top of the Final Qualification group claims the Libyan Second Division title for the 2008-09 season. Any bookings, sendings-off or other punishments will be carried forward to the Final Qualification stage.

The two clubs that finish bottom of their respective groups are directly relegated to the Libyan Third Division for the 2009-10 season.

If two or more teams are tied for a particular position, the tie-breaker is as follows:

I) Head-to-Head record between the team(s) in question:
i) Total number of goals scored in meetings between team(s) in question
ii) Total number of away goals scored in meetings between team(s) in question
