Notes:

AEK Kythreas also participated in 2011–12 Cypriot Fourth Division. AEK's relegation during 2009–10 Cypriot Fourth Division forced the team to suspend operations. The team resumed operations in the 2011–12 season. According to a specific regulation, the refugees football clubs that were resuming their operations could participate in the Cypriot Fourth Division. So, AEK's application to participate in the fourth division was accepted.
Levadiakos/Salamina Livadion also secured their participation in the 2011–12 Cypriot Fourth Division through the amateur divisions. However, Cyprus Football Association decided that the team did not meet basic requirements for the registering as a member of the federation. After an extraordinary general meeting it was decided that the team was eventually able to join the Cyprus Football Association. But, because the 2011–12 Cypriot Fourth Division had already began, it was decided that the team would book a place to the 2012–13 Cypriot Fourth Division, the next seasons' championship.
