A status offense is an action that is prohibited only to a certain class of people, and most often applied only to offenses committed by minors.

In the United States, the term status offense also refers to an offense such as a traffic violation where motive is not a consideration in determining guilt. In the United Kingdom and Europe, this type of status offense may be termed a regulatory offence.
