The Syrian Communist Party (Arabic: الحزب الشيوعي السوري, romanizedAl-Hizb Al-Shuyū'ī Al-Sūrī) is a banned anti-revisionist Marxist–Leninist communist party in Syria.[3][4][5]

Following the fall of Ba'athist Syria, the party along with the pro-Ba'ath National Progressive Front (NPF), of which it was a member, was dissolved by the Syrian transitional government and prohibited from reforming on 29 January 2025.[6]
