Notes:

^ North Korea were originally scheduled to play host to Japan in Kim Il-sung Stadium. However, North Korea then decided against hosting it due to "a malignant infectious disease" spreading in Japan.^[3] Due to the time gap and North Korea's inability to provide an alternative venue, FIFA subsequently decided that the match shall neither be played nor rescheduled, and the matter will be decided by FIFA Disciplinary Committee.^[4] It was later announced that Japan would be awarded a 3–0 victory by forfeit.^[5]
^ Promotion from the JFL is conditional on holding a valid J3 license. If the JFL champions hold a license, the club will be automatically promoted and the J3's 20th-placed team will be automatically relegated. If the JFL runners-up hold a license, the club will need to play promotion/relegation play-offs against J3's 19th or 20th-placed team for the season, depending on whether the JFL champions hold the J3 license. The club(s) who do not hold a license cannot be promoted.

Notes:

^ ^a ^b Promotion is conditional on holding a valid J3 license (marked in bold in the table). If two clubs with J3 license finish in the top two of the JFL, the 1st-placed JFL club is automatically promoted to the J3 League and the 20th-placed J3 club is relegated to the JFL. The 2nd-placed JFL club will play the 19th-placed J3 club in the J3 and JFL promotion/relegation playoffs, and the winner will be in J3. If there is only one club with a J3 license in the top two places, the licensed club will be automatically promoted to J3 if it is ranked 1st in the JFL, and the 20th-ranked J3 club will be automatically relegated; if the licensed club is ranked 2nd in the JFL, it will play off with the 20th-ranked J3 club. In this case, the 19th-ranked J3 club will remain in its league. If both the 1st- and 2nd-placed JFL clubs do not have J3 licenses, there will be no swap between the leagues.
