The 2019 1. divisjon is the second tier of Norwegian women's football in 2019. The season kicked off on 13 April 2019 and is scheduled to finish on 3 November 2019.[1]

Due to a reduction of teams from 12 to 10 teams in both the first and the second tier, the top placed team will have to play promotion play-offs against the tenth-placed team in Toppserien to win promotion. Four teams are relegated directly to the 2. divisjon. The eighth-placed teams play relegation play-offs against a team from 2. divisjon.
