The Guldbagge for Best Foreign Film is a Swedish film award presented annually by the Swedish Film Institute (SFI) as part of the Guldbagge Awards (Swedish: "Guldbaggen").
The category was discontinued, after four years of evaluation, as of the 58th gala, in 2023. In the last years it was called Best International Film.
