The South Island Independence movement is a term applied to a loose grouping of various organisations which have called for financial and administrative self-government for New Zealand's South Island. A former New Zealand Prime Minister, Sir Julius Vogel, was amongst the first to make this call, which was voted on by the New Zealand Parliament in 1865.

More recently, the South Island Party (not currently registered) has promoted a similar agenda, fielding candidates in the 1999 General Election.
