The 2012–13 Azerbaijan Premier League was the twenty-first season of the Premier League since its establishment in 1992. The season began on 4 August 2012 and finished on 20 May 2013. Neftchi Baku, the champions from the previous season, defended their title.

Teams

A total of 12 teams contested the league, including all 12 sides from the 2011–12 season, as no teams were promoted from the 2011–12 Azerbaijan First Division.{{cite web|script-title=ru:Состав участников премьер-лиги не изменится

On 10 April 2012, FK Qaradağ sealed promotion to the league after winning the first division. However, due to a decision by AFFA about licensing, no clubs were promoted which meant all clubs from the previous season remained in the league.
