This is a list of all current judges of the United States courts of appeals. The United States courts of appeals or circuit courts are the intermediate appellate courts of the United States federal court system. The list includes both "active" and "senior" judges, both of whom currently hear and decide cases.

Of the thirteen US courts of appeals, twelve are divided into geographical jurisdictions. Eleven are referred to numerically, while the other is referred to as the District of Columbia Circuit. The thirteenth is the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit which has nationwide jurisdiction over appeals based on subject matter, such as patent law.

Congress has currently authorized 179 judgeships ^[1], though the number of current judges will be higher because of some judges electing senior status. Only active judges may fill an authorized judgeship. Some judgeships are vacant and are waiting on either a presidential nominee or senate approval, most often the latter. As of April 1, 2019, there are 8 vacancies including 4 for the 9th circuit.

Per the practice of visiting judges, sometimes appeals courts cases are heard and decided by active, senior, or retired judges from the US district courts, US courts of appeals, or US Supreme Court, for cases either within or outside of their assigned geographical jurisdiction. Some judges with senior status are currently inactive. They are not yet retired and may return to actively hearing cases.
