The 2015–16 Liga II is the 76th season of the Liga II, the second tier of the Romanian football league system. The season will begin on 29 August.

The 28 teams were divided in two series (with 14 teams each). The regular season will be played in a round-robin tournament. The first six teams from each series will play a play-off for promotion to Liga I. Because of switching to a system with just one series of 22 teams from next season, there will be 11 teams relegated from Liga II this year. After the regular season, the last two teams in each series will be relegated to Liga III; the last 3 teams in each play-out pool will also relegate, while the 3rd placed teams in the play-out will face off in a game that will determine the 11th relegated team.

At the end of 2014-15 season, Voluntari from Seria I and Poli Timișoara from Seria II were promoted to Liga I.
Four teams were relegated to Liga III: Unirea Slobozia and Săgeata Năvodari (Seria I), Olt Slatina and Fortuna Poiana Câmpina (Seria II).
Last six teams from 2014–15 Liga I were relegated to Liga II: Gaz Metan Mediaș, Brașov, Universitatea Cluj, Rapid București, Oțelul Galați, Ceahlăul Piatra Neamț.
The winners of the five 2014–15 Liga III series were promoted to Liga II: Bucovina Pojorâta, Dunărea Călărași, Chindia Târgoviște, UTA Arad and Baia Mare.
