The Royal Black Institution, the Imperial Grand Black Chapter of the British Commonwealth, or simply the Black Institution,[1] is a Protestant fraternal society.

In 2016, a theological working group set up by the Church of Ireland was informed by the organisation's leadership that it had a membership of around 17,000, of whom around 16,000 lived in the British Isles.[2]
