The 2023 FIA World Rally Championship was the fifty-first season of the competition organised by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) as the highest class of international rallying. Teams and crews competed for the World Rally Championships for Drivers, Co-drivers and Manufacturers. Crews were free to compete in cars complying with Groups Rally1 to Rally5 regulations; however, only manufacturers competing with Rally1 cars homologated were eligible to score points in the manufacturers' championship. The championship began in January 2023 with the Monte Carlo Rally and concluded in November 2023 with the Rally Japan. The series was supported by the World Rally Championship-2 and World Rally Championship-3 categories at every round of the championship and by the Junior World Rally Championship at selected events.
Kalle Rovanperä and Jonne Halttunen were the reigning drivers' and co-drivers' champions, having secured their first championship titles at the 2022 Rally New Zealand. Toyota were the defending manufacturers' champions.
At the conclusion of the championship, Rovanperä and Halttunen won their second World Rally Championship titles at the 2023 Central European Rally. Elfyn Evans and Scott Martin were second, trailing by thirty-four points. Thierry Neuville and Martijn Wydaeghe were third, a further twenty-seven points behind. In the manufacturers' championship, Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT successfully defended their title at the 2023 Rally Chile, holding over-one-hundred-point lead over Hyundai Shell Mobis WRT, with M-Sport Ford WRT in third.
The season was marred by the death of Craig Breen in a pre-event test prior to the 2023 Croatia Rally.
