Beinir Sigmundsson (10th century, Skúvoy, Faroes - 970 Dímun, Faroes) was together with his brother Brestir Sigmundsson ruler over half of the Faroe Islands.

Beinir was the son of Sigmund the Elder. Together with Torah he had the child Tori. Beinir and his brother were eventually murdered in 970 on Stóra Dímun and Svínoy-Bjarne by a viking chieftain from Svínoy and Havgrímur from Hov (who also died).
