The 2013–14 3. Liga was the sixth season of the 3. Liga, Germany's third-level football league.

The league consisted of twenty teams: The teams placed fourth through seventeenth of the

2012–13 Fußball-Regionalliga and the losers of the relegation play-off
between the 16th-placed 2nd Bundesliga team and the third-placed 3rd Liga team.

Teams

At the end of the 2012–13 season,

Jahn Regensburg and SV Sandhausen, who finished in the bottom two places of the 2012–13 2nd Bundesliga table and thus were to be directly relegated. Both Regensburg and Sandhausen were to be relegated after cameo appearances in the 2nd Bundesliga. However, MSV Duisburg were denied a licence for the 2nd Bundesliga (though not the licence for the 3rd Liga[1]
) and were relegated. Sandhausen were given the free place in the 2nd Bundesliga.

At the other end of the table,

Regionalliga South-West. However, Kickers Offenbach
were denied the license for the 3rd League and Darmstadt were instead allowed to stay in the 3rd League. Offenbach relegated to the Regionalliga South-West.

The three relegated teams were replaced by the three winners of the 2012–13 Regionalliga promotion playoffs.

Northern division
returned to the national level of football after three seasons in the fourth tier Regionalliga.

A further place in the league was available via a two-legged play-off between third-placed 2012–13 3rd Liga team VfL Osnabrück and 16th-placed 2012–13 2. Bundesliga sides Dynamo Dresden. The tie ended 2–1 on aggregate and saw Dresden remain in the 2nd Bundesliga.
