The 2015–16 V Football Group season was the 66th season of the Bulgarian V Group. The group comprised the third level of the Bulgarian football pyramid and was divided into four geographic regions: North-West, North-East, South-East, and South-West. The 2015-16 season was notable for the participation of CSKA Sofia (the most successful club in Bulgaria) and Lokomotiv Sofia in the South-Western region, as the two teams were unable to obtain a license for the A PFG due to unpaid debts, which led to their administrative relegation.
Changes from season 2014/15

In return, four teams were relegated to the V AFG: Botev Vratsa, Chernomorets Burgas, Rakovski and Spartak Varna.

Furthermore, Tundzha Yambol declared on 31 July 2015 their inability to participate this season due to financial and organizational reasons. Its place was taken by FC Karnobat, which won 3-0 a play-off game against Vereya Stara Zagora II in Elhovo. The new teams, coming from the regional divisions, are Uragan Boyadzhik and Borislav Parvomay.

Two days before the start of the season, the game between CSKA and Slivnishki Geroy was postponed due to problems with the CSKA players' files, which is currently resolved. After playing its first game, the other Sofia powerhouse Lokomotiv declared its inability to maintain its participation due to financial and organizational reasons. The decision was confirmed by the Zonal Council of BFU on 24 August 2015, which led to the expulsion of Lokomotiv and the annulment of its current results.[1] Conegliano German, which finished 10th last season, was acquired by DIT Group and later merged into PFC Septemvri Sofia.
