2021–22 FIS Ski Jumping World Cup

The 2021–22 FIS Ski Jumping World Cup was the 43rd World Cup season in ski jumping for men, the 25th official World Cup season in ski flying, and the 11th World Cup season for women. The men's season started in November 2021 in Nizhny Tagil, Russia and concluded in March 2022 in Planica, Slovenia. The women's season started in December 2021 in Lillehammer, Norway and was expected to conclude in March 2022 in Chaykovsky, Russia. However, because of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the women's season concluded in Oberhof, Germany.

Halvor Egner Granerud (men's) and Nika Križnar (women's) were the defending overall champions from the previous season.

Season overview
The first edition of the Silvester Tournament (women's version of the Four Hills Tournament) was held with two knockout events from 31 December 2021 to 1 January 2022 in Ljubno, Slovenia. The Alpenkrone Tournament – consisting of one competition in Ramsau and two in Hinzenbach – also made its debut in the women's competition.

Fatih Arda İpcioğlu became the first Turkish ski jumper in history of World Cup who managed to qualify to the main competition at the season opener in Nizhny Tagil.

On 26 November 2021, Marita Kramer won the individual competition with the biggest ever lead over the second-placed athlete (Ema Klinec) in the history of the Women's World Cup with 41.7 points.

For the first time since the 1983–84 season, six different athletes won the first six men's individual competitions.

After the competition in Innsbruck was cancelled, the Four Hills Tournament was held only on three hills; this has only happened once before in the tournament's 70-year history, in the 2007–08 season.

On 1 March 2022, following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the International Ski Federation (FIS) decided to exclude athletes from Russia and Belarus from FIS competitions, with an immediate effect.
