The Swedish Ice Hockey Association (SIHA) or Svenska Ishockeyförbundet in Swedish, is an association of Swedish sports clubs with ice hockey activities.

SIHA was originally part of the Swedish Football Association but became an association of its own on November 17, 1922. In 1920, the SIHA became a member of the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF). Apart from hockey, inline hockey is the province of the SIHA as well.

The association's general secretary currently is Christer Englund.
