The Öresund Committee ({{lang-sv|Öresundskomiteen}}) was an organisation which described itself as a platform for regional political collaboration in the Öresund region. The Öresund region comprises Sweden's most southerly province of Skåne and the Danish islands of Zealand, Lolland, Falster and Bornholm. The Öresund region has a total population of 3.7 million inhabitants.

The Öresund Committee was established in 1993 and worked as the platform for regional political cooperation in the Öresund Region, lobbying for Öresund interest at national and European level. The Committee worked across party lines in its efforts to solve important questions about the infrastructure, labor market, culture and popular support and is the "embassy" of the Öresund region.

The name used by the Öresund Committee for itself in both Danish and Swedish is Öresundskomiteen, which is a hybrid of its Danish language and the Swedish language names.
