Hei- en Boeicop is a village in the Dutch province of Utrecht. Part of the municipality of Vijfheerenlanden, it lies about 9 km south of IJsselstein.

The village consists of a long row of houses on two sides of a small canal that separates the Polder Boeicop to the north from the Polder Heicop to the south.

Hei- en Boeicop was an independent municipality in the province of South Holland between 1817 and 1986, when it became part of Zederik.[3] When Zederik merged into the new municipality Vijfheerenlanden in 2019, it became a part of the province of Utrecht.[4]
