Øresundståg (Danish: [ˈøːɐsɔnsˌtsʰɔˀw], Swedish: [œrɛˈsɵ̂nːdsˌtoːɡ]) (since 2023 to a higher degree written Öresundståg by themselves) is a passenger train network that crosses the Øresund Bridge and encompasses Copenhagen in Denmark as well as Malmö and other localities in the south of Sweden extending up to Gothenburg. The network is owned by Skånetrafiken together with other Swedish public transport authorities. As of 2026, the operations are contracted to VR Sverige.

The name is a hybrid of the Danish Øresundstog and the Swedish Öresundståg, both meaning "Øresund train". The rolling stock, also known as Class ET in Denmark and X31K in Sweden, are electric passenger trainsets in the Flexliner family.
