The SVB Eerste Divisie is the highest football championship for clubs run by the Surinaamse Voetbal Bond. The Eerste Divisie is at the top of the system of Surinamese football championships. The league currently comprises twelve teams and operates a system of promotion and relegation. Seasons run from November to June of the next year, with teams playing 30 games in the regular season. The league was known as the Hoofdklasse but became Topklasse beginning with the 2016–17 season, and then from the 2017–18 season forward, the Eerste Divisie.

The competition was founded in 1924, when Suriname was still a Dutch colony.
