The Iceland women's national football team represents Iceland in international women's football. They are currently ranked as the 14th best women's national team in the world by FIFA as of June 2024.

History

The Iceland women's national football team played its first game on 20 September 1981, facing Scotland. Bryndís Einarsdóttir scored Iceland's first ever goal in the 2–3 loss, with Ásta B. Gunnlaugsdóttir scoring the other.

On 30 October 2008, the national team qualified to the 2009 UEFA Women's Championship, the first major football tournament Iceland ever took part in, having previously competed in the 1995 UEFA Women's Championship which was a home and away knockout competition. At the 2013 UEFA Women's Championship, they took their first point in a major championship, following a draw against Norway in the opening game.

During qualifiers for Women's Euro 2009 Þóra Tómasdóttir and Hrafnhildur Gunnarsdóttir followed the team and recorded the documentary Stelpurnar okkar (translated: Our Girls) which was premiered on 14 August 2009.
