Promoted teams Ten clubs initially secured promotion from the county championships to the 2026–27 Nemzeti Bajnokság III. SZAC and Gyöngyös were awarded direct promotion after their prospective play-off opponents did not compete, while eight other clubs advanced by winning their promotion play-offs. Mátészalka recorded the largest aggregate victory, defeating Nagyatád 11–1, while Szolnok won the closest tie, overcoming Kecskeméti TE II 3–2 on aggregate. Hajdúnánás returned to the Nemzeti Bajnokság III after an 18-year absence by defeating Balatonalmádi 5–2 on aggregate. Király defeated Mohács 5–2 on aggregate despite a much closer second leg, Zalaegerszeg II overcame Sárisáp 7–2 on aggregate by winning both matches, Sárbogárd defeated Dunavarsány 4–2 on aggregate, Sándorfalva eliminated Szarvas 7–1 on aggregate, and Salgótarján advanced with a 4–0 aggregate victory over Emőd.
Before the start of the season, however, Gyöngyös withdrew from the competition, while Putnok did not submit an entry and Balatonlelle declined the opportunity to remain in the league. As a result, the Hungarian Football Federation admitted play-off losers Balatonalmádi and Sárisáp, along with relegated Pápa, to complete the 2026–27 Nemzeti Bajnokság III field.
