The Galician Language Association (Galician: Associaçom Galega da Língua, pronounced [asɔθjaˈθoŋ ɡaˈleɣɐ ˈliŋɡwɐ] or [asɔsjaˈsoŋ ɡaˈleɣɐ ˈliŋɡwɐ]; AGAL) is a Galician linguistic and cultural association founded on 31 October 1981. Its objectives are the promotion and standardization of the Galician language, understanding it to be the same language as Portuguese. It is the main entity of the reintegrationist movement and is responsible, through its Comissom Linguística (Linguistic Commission), for codifying the international Galician norm, which converges with the norm used in Portuguese.

Since 19 July 2024, it helds the status of Consultative Observer of the Community of Portuguese Language Countries.
