Notes:
  1. ^ UR Namur has been sanctioned by the control commission of the Belgian FA for financial irregularities and outstanding debts to former players and staff. The team will face relegation and start the 2018–19 season with a penalty of 9 points. If they had achieved promotion during the 2017–18 season, the club would have remained in the Belgian Third Amateur Division, however as they relegated, they immediately dropped two levels, not one.[1]


Championship matches

Both the two VFV and two ACFF teams winning their leagues will play a title match to determine the overall VFV and ACFF champions of the Belgian Third Division. The overall ACFF champion will be determined over two legs while Menen and Heur-Tongeren will play for the VFV title in a single match at the stadium of Menen (determined by draw). There will be no match between the overall VFV and ACFF champions.

Championship match VFV

Menen0–5 FFHeur-Tongeren

Promotion play-offs

Promotion play-offs VFV

The teams finishing in second place in the Third Amateur Division A and Third Amateur Division B will take part in a promotion playoff first round together with three period winners from both divisions. These 8 teams from the VFV will play the first round of a promotion-playoff, with two teams promoting to the 2018–19 Belgian Second Amateur Division. Depending on the number of VFV teams relegating from the 2017–18 Belgian First Amateur Division and possible mergers and bankruptcies, more teams might get promoted. As a result, the two winning teams in the VFV Round 2 immediately received promotion, while the other teams continued the play-offs to determine the order in which possible further places would be awarded.

In Division A, champions Menen and second placed Dikkelvenne each won one periods, allowing the next three teams in the league to take part: Wingene, Eppegem and Wetteren. In Division B, the two periods were won by champion Heur-Tongeren while second placed Wellen won the remaining period. Hence the teams in overall positions 3 to 5 took part: Termien, Diegem Sport and Leopoldsburg.

Diegem and Eppegem were promoted to the 2018–19 Belgian Second Amateur Division, while Dikkelvenne and Termien moved to the VFV Round 3 to play for the order on the waiting list in case any remaining places came up.

VFV Round 3

Dikkelvenne2–0Termien
Van Damme 49'
Martens 77'		 Report

Following the bankruptcy of Lierse in the Belgian First Division B, an extra spot became available. As the winner of round 3, Dikkelvenne was promoted to take up this free spot. Termien remains in the Belgian Third Amateur Division.

Promotion play-offs ACFF

The team finishing in second place in the Third Amateur Division C and Third Amateur Division D will take part in a promotion playoff first round together with three period winners from both divisions. These 8 teams from the ACFF will play the first round of a promotion-playoff, with normally one team promoting to the 2018–19 Belgian Second Amateur Division although more places could come up which is why the third round also features a match between the losers of the second round.

In Division C, Couvin-Mariembourg and Onhaye managed to each win one period. As the other period was won by champions La Louvière, the remaining spots in the play-offs went to second placed Francs Borains and fourth placed Tournai. In Division D, the champions Tilleur had won two periods, the other went to Visé who were joined in the play-offs by the teams finishing 3rd to 5th, Stockay, Aische and Herstal.

The winners would normally move on to Round 3 to play for promotion, however this season two teams were promoted directly and therefore the match was not necessary as both Francs Borains and Visé were promoted. The losers play a match to determine third place in case extra promotion places would come up.

Third place match

Aische1–3Couvin-Mariembourg

As one extra spot became available, Couvin-Mariembourg was also promoted. Aische remained in the Belgian Third Amateur Division.

Relegation play-offs

ACFF

As no teams from the ACFF wing relegated from the 2017–18 Belgian First Amateur Division, both teams were eventually spared from relegation.

At the time of the match, it was yet uncertain how many teams from each wing would be relegated. In the end, with the relegations of Hamme, Berchem Sport and Patro Eisden Maasmechelen from the 2017–18 Belgian First Amateur Division and the addition bankruptcy of Lierse (playing in the 2017–18 Belgian First Division B), which are all VFV teams, both Diest and Ninove were eventually relegated.
