The Toppserien is the top level of women's association football in Norway. Founded in 1984, the league acquired official status in 1987 and was named 1. divisjon fotball for kvinner until 1995, when the name "Toppserien" was officially adopted ahead of the 1996 season.

The league consisted of 10 teams from 1987 to 2006, and 12 teams from 2007 to 2019. Before the 2020 season, a new league structure was decided, which involved reducing to 10 teams and introducing play-offs, before returning to 12 teams from 2026. In 2025, Toppserien was ranked as the eighth-best women's football league in Europe according to the UEFA coefficient ranking.
