The Burundi women's national football team is the representative women's association football team of Burundi. Its governing body is the Football Federation of Burundi (FBF) and it competes as a member of the Confederation of African Football (CAF).

The national team has never participated in an official FIFA-sanctioned match or the Women's World Cup. Despite initially preparing for the qualification tournament for the 2007 Cup, the team did not compete in the event and has withdrawn from various other competitions. In 2008, Burundi was set to play in the African Women's Championship but withdrew, granting automatic qualification to the DR the Congo. The team also withdrew from the 2010 and 2012 editions of the Africa Women's Cup of Nations before the first-round qualifiers.[1][2][3] Burundi first international game was on 8 September 2016 when they faced Tanzania in a friendly match as preparation for their debut in the CECAFA Women's Championship.[4] in 2022, Burundi qualified for the Africa Women's Cup of Nations in their first try.[5] Burundi is currently ranked 177th in the FIFA Women's World Rankings.[6][7]
