The World Rugby Women's World Rankings is a ranking system for women's national teams in rugby union, managed by World Rugby, the sport's governing body. Led by England as of June 2023, they attempt to compare the strength of internationally active women's national teams at any given time.

As a follow-on to the existing World Rugby Men's World Rankings, the teams of World Rugby's member nations are ranked based on their game results, with the most successful teams being ranked highest. The top step of the women's rankings have been notably less volatile than the equivalent men's rankings, with only two teams, New Zealand and England reaching that mark.
