The King Haakon VII 1905–1930 Jubilee Medal (Norwegian: Kong Haakon VIIs jubileumsmedalje 1905–1930), also known as the King's Jubilee Medal (Norwegian: Kongens jubileumsmedalje), is a Norwegian award instituted in 1930 by Haakon VII of Norway in honor of the 25th anniversary of his ascension to the throne. The medal has been conferred upon 397 people.

The King Haakon VII 1905–1930 Jubilee Medal is made of silver and is 33 mm in diameter. The obverse depicts King Haakon VII with the inscription "HAAKON • VII • NORGES • KONGE •" (Haakon VII King of Norway). The reverse shows the royal monogram. The medal was created by the engraver Ivar Throndsen. The medal is fitted to a royal crown and hangs from a red medal ribbon. The medal ribbon has a silver clasp reading "1905–1930."

Later the King Haakon VII 1905–1955 Jubilee Medal (Norwegian: Kong Haakon VIIs jubileumsmedalje 1905-1955), the King Haakon VII Commemorative Medal (Norwegian: Kong Haakon VIIs minnemedalje), and the King Haakon VII Centennial Medal (Norwegian: Kong Haakon VIIs 100-årsmedalje) were given the same design as the King Haakon VII 1905–1930 Jubilee Medal, but the ribbon clasps and inscriptions were modified to match the occasions they marked.
