The Old Catholic Church of Austria (German: Altkatholische Kirche Österreichs) is the Austrian member church of the Union of Utrecht of the Old Catholic Churches. It was nationally recognized in 1877, despite objections of the imperial dynasty and the Roman Catholic hierarchy in the formally pro-Vatican I state of Austria-Hungary.

In 1997, the church began ordaining women. In 2007, the church elected Bishop John Okoro, a Nigeria former Roman Catholic priest, who became a member of the Old Catholic Church of Austria in 1999. Prior to his election he had been the parish priest in Vorarlberg.

The following bishops have governed the Old Catholic Church in Austria.
