The Irkliiv Regiment (Ukrainian: Іркліївський полк, romanized: Irkliivskyi polk) was one the territorial-administrative subdivisions of the Cossack Hetmanate. The regiment's capital was the city of Irkliiv, now a village in Cherkasy Oblast of central Ukraine.

In 1648, during Khmelnytsky Uprising, Regiment was raised from the Irkliiv sotnia of the Pereiaslav Regiment. Colonel Mykhailo Teliuchenko became the first commander.[1] On 16 October 1649 Irkliiv and neighboring part of Lubny Regiment were merged to form Kropyvna Regiment.[2][3][4] Other sotnias were absorbed into Chyhyryn Regiment and Cherkasy Regiment.

Hetman Ivan Vyhovsky disbanded Kropyvna Regiment in 1658 after death of colonel Filon Dzhelaliy. The regiments sotnias were all transferred to recreated Irkliiv Regiment and Lubny Regiment.[1] Matvii Pankevych became the new regiments colonel.[5] When the regiment was disbanded again in 1663, its sotnias went to neighbouring Pereiaslav Regiment, Pryluky Regiment and Lubny Regiment.
