The Fukuoka Subway 2000 series (福岡市交通局2000系^?) is an electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by Fukuoka City Transportation Bureau on the Hakozaki Line and Kūkō Line subway lines in Fukuoka, Japan, since 1993.

The fleet of six 6-car 2000 series trains are based at Meinohama depot and are used alongside the Fukuoka Subway 1000 series on the Hakozaki Line and Kūkō Line subway lines, and also through-running services to and from the Chikuhi Line owned by Kyushu Railway Company (JR Kyushu).

The trains were manufactured by Kinki Sharyo in 1992, by Kawasaki Heavy Industries in 1994 and 1997, and by Nippon Sharyo in 1998. The trains have stainless steel bodies. Each car is 20 m (65 ft 7 in) long with four pairs of doors on each side, air conditioning, and space to accommodate wheelchairs. The longitudinal seats are covered with a green moquette.
