Saint-Sulpice-les-Bois is a commune in the Corrèze department in central France.

The Triouzoune has its source in the northwestern part of the commune; it flows southeast through the commune and forms part of its southeastern boundary.

The village was once called Taphaleschat. The name is derived from Taifals, a barbarian people (from Oltenia) settled in Gaul in the fifth century.
