List of submissions to the 76th Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film

This is a list of submissions to the 76th Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has invited the film industries of various countries to submit their best film for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film every year since the award was created in 1956. The award is handed out annually by the academy to a feature-length motion picture produced outside the United States that contains primarily non-English dialogue. The Foreign Language Film Award Committee oversees the process and reviews all the submitted films.

For the 76th Academy Awards, fifty-six films were submitted to the academy. Mongolia, Palestine and Sri Lanka submitted a film for the first time. Palestine was excluded from submitting a film the year before, but The academy made an exception in the interests of inclusiveness. The winner of the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film was Canada's The Barbarian Invasions, which was directed by Denys Arcand.
