The British Orthodox Church (BOC), formerly the Orthodox Church of the British Isles,[1] is an independent church, having its roots in Oriental Orthodoxy.

The British Orthodox Church has not been in communion with any of the Oriental Orthodox churches since a 2015 decision to return to an independent status.
