The Liga 3 (Ligue 3) of Peru is the third-highest division in the Peruvian football league system. It is a semi-professional and promotional division organized by the Peruvian Football Federation.
The idea of the League 3 was discussed by the Peruvian Football Federation in 2019. However, between the end of 2023 and the beginning of 2024, the creation of League 3 was a request and requirement established by FIFA. The creation of the third division means that the Copa Perú (equivalent to League 4) becomes a lower category.
In 2024, the Peruvian Football Federation, taking into account CONMEBOL's observations, then decides that the Copa Perú would be the tournament that decides the participants in a meritorious manner, based on the original idea from years ago: the 25 representatives of each department that are best placed in the final table of the 2024 Copa Perú's National Stage, whether the departmental champion or runner-up and except for those promoted to Liga 2, will be the clubs that will play the first edition of Liga 3 in the year 2025.
