The 2023–24 Mongolian National Premier League is the 56th season of the Mongolian National Premier League, the highest football league in the country. Erchim FC were the defending champions. The league was known this season as the Mobi Premier League for sponsorship reasons. FC Ulaanbaatar were the eventual champions, winning their second title in club history. Ulaanbaatar City FC withdrew from the league without playing their final three matches. The club's match results were annulled.[1] Khovd FC's Batkhyag Munkh-Erdene was the league's top scorer with 38 goals.[1]

Changes before the season

BCH Lions should have been relegated from 2021–22 Mongolian National Premier League but remained in the league after Athletic 220 withdrew.[1]
