The Polish–Swedish Wars were a series of wars between the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and Sweden, in the wider meaning to the series of wars in which both Sweden and Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth participated between 1563 and 1721, in the narrower meaning denoting the two wars between 1600 and 1629. In the wider meaning, they are:
- the 16th century conflict sometimes referred to as the Livonian War (1558–1583)
- the War against Sigismund, in 1598
- the war of 1600–1629 (sometimes considered a part of the larger trans-European Thirty Years' War) which was twice interrupted by periods of truce and can be divided into:
- the war of 1600–1611
- the war of 1620–1622
- the war of 1625–1629
- the conflicts in the second half of the 17th century known as The Deluge (part of Northern Wars 1655-61)
- the Northern Wars in 1655–1661
- the last Polish-Swedish war, also known as the Great Northern War (1700–1721).
