The Magritte Award for Best Flemish Film (French: Magritte du meilleur film flamand) is an award presented annually by the Académie André Delvaux. It is one of the Magritte Awards, which were established to recognize excellence in Belgian cinematic achievements.[1]

The category's original name was Best Flemish Film in Coproduction, but was changed to its current name in 2015 for the 5th Magritte Awards.[2] It was first awarded in 2012, when Best Film in Coproduction was split in Best Foreign Film in Coproduction and Best Flemish Film in Coproduction.[3] As of the 2024 ceremony, Het smelt is the most recent winner.
