The 2023 Women's Ice Hockey World Championships were the 26th such series of tournaments organized by the International Ice Hockey Federation. Teams participated at several levels of competition.[1] These tournaments also served as qualifications for the 2024 competition.[2]
As in 2022, teams from Russia and Belarus were not allowed to enter, as they were suspended by the IIHF due to the countries' invasion of Ukraine.[3]
The Top Division tournament was played in Brampton, Canada, from 5 to 16 April 2023.[4][5]
