She was launched on 27 July 1940 and commissioned on 4 September 1940 with Leutnant Asmus Nicolai Clausen in command. U-142 began her service life with the 1st U-boat Flotilla. She was then assigned to the 24th Flotilla and subsequently to the 22nd Flotilla where she conducted three patrols, but did not sink or damage any ships. She spent the rest of the war as a training vessel. She was scuttled in May 1945.
