The 2013 Archery World Cup was the eighth edition of the annual Archery World Cup, organised by the World Archery Federation. Four stages were held from May to August 2013, in Shanghai, Antalya, Medellin and Wroclaw, in which archers in the recurve and compound disciplines acquired qualifying points based on their performance. The top mixed team and the top seven individual archers over the course of the four stages (with no more than two from one nation) joined the leading non-qualified host nation archer for the finals at the Fontaines du Trocadéro in Paris on 21–22 September.

In recurve, South Korea was the most successful nation, with Olympic champion Oh Jin-Hyek and Yun Ok-Hee winning both the individual and the team competition. The compound competition saw Martin Damsbo and newcomer Alejandra Usquiano win the individual competitions, and hosts France win the mixed team.

The compound legs consisted of a 50m qualification round of 72 arrows, followed by the compound round at 50m on a 6-zone target face, using cumulative scoring for all individual, team and mixed competitions. The top seven individual performers (with no more than two from each country,) plus one host nation representative if not already qualified, proceeded to the finals; the top mixed team performer proceeded to face the host nation at the finals, which were the same competition format as the legs. The team competition was not competed at the finals.
