The Russian Athletics Federation (RAF), previously named the All-Russia Athletic Federation (ARAF; Russian: Всероссийская федерация лёгкой атлетики, ВФЛА), is the governing body for the sport of athletics in Russia. Its Chairman is Petr Fradkov.

World Athletics suspended the Russian Athletics Federation from World Athletics starting in 2015, for eight years, due to doping violations. However, Russian athletes were eligible to compete as Authorised Neutral Athletes (ANA).

As of 2022, due to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, World Athletics has banned all Russian athletes, support personnel, and officials from all World Athletics Series events for the foreseeable future, including those with ANA status.
