The 2012 World Junior Ice Hockey Championship Division II was a pair of international ice hockey tournaments organized by the International Ice Hockey Federation. In 2012, a new format was introduced to the IIHF World Junior Championships, therefore Division II A and Division II B now represent the fourth and fifth tier of the IIHF World Junior Championship. Division II was played in two groups of six teams each. In each group, the first-placed team is promoted to a higher level, while the last-placed team is relegated to a lower level. This year, for the first time, the winner of Group B is promoted to Group A and the winner of Group A is promoted to the next year's Division I.[1] Previously, the winners of both groups were promoted to the Division I.
