The 2019–20 season of the Ukrainian Championship Higher League is the 29th season of Ukraine's top women's football league. It runs from 20 July 2019 to 30 May 2020.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic across the globe, the spring portion of the competition was suspended. Finally in early July 2020, the UAF Executive Committee approved continuation of the Women's Top Division as per the existing season's regulations and pre-cautionary health security measures that were adopted in Ukraine in late May 2020.
