The 2000 2. divisjon was the third highest football (soccer) league for men in Norway .
22 games were played in 8 groups, with 3 points given for wins and 1 for draws. Ørn-Horten , Mandalskameratene , Hødd and Aalesund were promoted to the First Division through playoffs against the other 4 group winners.
Because of the league being streamlined for the next season , more teams than usual—number nine, ten, eleven and twelve—were relegated to the 3. divisjon . The winning teams from each of the 24 groups in the 3. divisjon faced some teams placed seven and eight (except for the three worst eight-place teams) in the 2. divisjon in three-way playoff matches, resulting in 10 playoff winners which stayed or were promoted to the 2. divisjon.
