Iowa Highway 98 (Iowa 98) was a state highway that ran from south to north in Van Buren County in southeastern Iowa. It began at Clay Street in Leando, crossed the Des Moines River, and ended at Iowa 16 north of Douds.

There have been two instances of Iowa 98 since Iowa's Primary Highway System was created in 1920. The first was a spur route connecting Eldon to what is now U.S. Highway 34 (US 34). That route was absorbed into an extended Iowa 16 in 1944. At the same time, the second Iowa 98 was created from a vacated segment of Iowa 16. The highway was extended over the Des Moines River into Leando in 1954. It was turned over to Van Buren County at the end of 2017.
