The 2023 Women's World Ice Hockey Championships were the 25th such series of tournaments organized by the International Ice Hockey Federation. Teams participated at several levels of competition.[1] These tournaments also served as qualifications for the 2024 competition.[2]
As in 2022, teams from Russia and Belarus were not allowed to enter, as they were suspended by the IIHF due to the countries' invasion of Ukraine.[3]
