Jindalee Shire was a local government area in the Riverina region of New South Wales, Australia.

Jindalee Shire was proclaimed on 7 March 1906 as Cowcumballa Shire, one of 134 shires created after the passing of the Local Government (Shires) Act 1905.[1] It was renamed Jindalee Shire on 13 March 1907.[2] On 17 September 1935, it absorbed part of the abolished Municipality of Wallendbeen.[3]

Initially, the shire shared an office with the Municipality of Cootamundra until moving into their own offices elsewhere in Cootamundra in 1946.[4] Urban areas in the shire included Stockinbingal, Wallendbeen and the village of Frampton[5]

The shire amalgamated with the Municipality of Cootamundra to form Cootamundra Shire on 1 April 1975.[6]
