The 2011–12 Iraqi First Division League was the 38th season of what is now called the Iraqi Premier Division League, the second tier of the Iraqi football league system, since its establishment in 1974. The number of clubs in the league have varied throughout history for various reasons. The top two teams in Final round (winner of each group) are promoted to the Iraqi Premier League.

The season began on Sunday 22 January 2012. In the final round, Naft Al-Janoob won the group 1 after facing Al-Mosul, while Sulaymaniya won the group 2 after facing Naft Maysan. Both teams were promoted to the Premier League, and qualified for the final match during which the champion is determined.[1] The final match was scheduled for August 14, 2012 at Al-Shaab Stadium in Baghdad.[2]

In the final match, Sulaymaniya managed to defeat Naft Al-Janoob 2–1 and win the First Division League title.[3]
