List of FIFA Women's World Cup penalty shoot-outs

This is a list of all penalty shoot-outs that have occurred in the Finals tournament of the FIFA Women's World Cup.

Twice, in 1999 and 2011, the World Cup title has been decided by a penalty shoot-out. Of the 11 shoot-outs that have taken place in the competition, three reached the sudden death stage after still being tied at the end of "best of five kicks". Of these, two of the most recent (at the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup) were the longest shoot-outs in either women's or men's World Cup history.
