The 2020–21 Thai League 3 Northern region is a region in the regional stage of the 2020–21 Thai League 3. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the season must be postponed to start in late 2020 and end in early 2021. In addition, the Thai League 4 had combined with the Thai League 3 and compete as Thai League 3 since this season[1] and there is no relegation in this season.[2] A total of 11 teams located in Northern, Upper western, and Upper central of Thailand will compete in the league of the Northern region.[3]

In late December 2020, COVID-19 had spread again in Thailand, the FA Thailand must abruptly end the regional stage of the Thai League 3.[4] The second-placed and the third-placed of the Northern region have the similar points, so they must play-off to find a team to qualified to the national championship stage.
