White Trinidadians and Tobagonians (sometimes referred as Euro–Trinidadians and Tobagonians) are Trinidadians and Tobagonians of European descent. The term "local-white" is also used to refer more specifically to Trinidad and Tobago–born Europeans and, in particular, those who trace their roots back to Trinidad and Tobago's early settlers. White Trinidadians and Tobagonians account for less than one percent of the population of Trinidad and Tobago.

Most white Trinidadians and Tobagonians are of Portuguese descent. White Trinidadians are often referred to as French Creoles, even if are they are of non-French ancestry such as Spanish, British, Portuguese, or German descent.
