The 2022 Iowa State Treasurer election was held on November 8, 2022, to elect the Treasurer of Iowa, concurrently with an election to the U.S. Senate, governor, U.S. House of Representatives, and other state and local elections. Primary elections were held on June 7, 2022, though both major party candidates only received token write-in opposition. A debate was held on October 7, 2022.

Incumbent Democratic treasurer Michael Fitzgerald ran for re-election to an eleventh term in office, but was defeated by Republican state senator Roby Smith. Fitzgerald was one of two statewide elected Democrats to lose re-election in 2022, along with Attorney General Tom Miller.
