Overview
Belgium was drawn in Group 7 of the UEFA Euro 1976 qualifications with Iceland, France and East Germany. At the end of the season, with 2 wins over Iceland and France and a draw against East Germany, Belgium was at the top of the group with 5 points, ahead of Iceland (4 points in 4 games), East Germany (3 points in 4 games) and France (2 points in 3 games). At the end of the season, the number of teams in Division I was decreased from 20 to 19, so the bottom 3 teams in Division I (KFC Diest, ROC de Montignies-sur-Sambre and KFC Winterslag) were relegated to Division II, to be replaced by Division II champions KRC Mechelen and the Belgian Second Division final round winner RAA Louviéroise. This time, all 4 teams participating in the final round were Division II teams, based on the period rankings and the final ranking. The tournament was contested by RAA Louviéroise, K Boom FC, KSK Tongeren and VG Oostende.

The bottom 3 teams in Division II (KAS Eupen, Royale Union and R Crossing Club de Schaerbeek) were relegated to Division III, to be replaced by KAA Gent and VV Patro Eisden from Division III.

The bottom 2 clubs of each Division III league (K Puurs EFC, KSK Roeselare, R Stade Waremmien FC and K Helzold FC) were relegated to Promotion, together with FC Denderleeuw who lost a two-legged play-off game against FC Dessel Sport (the two 14th-placed teams).

The winner of each Promotion league (K Hoger Op Merchtem, KSK Bree, RFC Sérésien and RRC Tienen) were promoted to Division III:.
