Competition format

The participating teams first played a round-robin schedule containing three rounds with every team playing each opponent at least once "home" and once "away" for a total of 21 matches ("home" and "away" designation is symbolic as all teams except Encamp, which has its own stadium, play at several venues). The league then split up in two groups of four teams with each of them playing teams within its group in a home-and-away cycle of matches. The top four teams competed for the championship and qualification spots for European competitions while the bottom four clubs played to avoid one direct relegation spot and one relegation play-off spot. Records earned in the regular season (first round) are carried over in full to the respective second round.[3]

Promotion and relegation from 2015–16

Penya Encarnada d'Andorra were relegated after the previous season due to finishing in eighth place. They were replaced by Segona Divisió champions Jenlai.

Encamp, who finished last season in 7th place, were originally set to compete in a two-legged relegation play-off against Carroi, the runner-up of the 2015–16 Segona Divisió for one spot in the 2016–17 Primera Divisió. However, on 20 May 2016, after the first leg, it was announced that Encamp were awarded the tie against Carroi, therefore Encamp remained in the top flight for the 2016–17 season.[4]
