The Hungarian women's national ice hockey team (Hungarian: Magyar női jégkorong-válogatott) represents Hungary at the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) Women's World Championship and other senior international women's tournaments. The women's national team is organized by the Magyar Jégkorong Szövetség (Hungarian Ice Hockey Federation). The Hungarian women's national team was ranked 12th in the world in 2020. They hosted and won the 2019 World Championship Division I Group A tournament in Budapest. The victory earned promotion to the Top Division for the first time in team history.[4]

Ice hockey increased in popularity among women in Hungary during the later part of the 2010s. Hungary had 477 female players registered with the IIHF in 2016[5] and, by 2020, the number had more than doubled to 1,144.[6]
