The Norfolk Island Labor Party (Pitcairn-Norfolk: Norfuk Ailen Leyba Paati), also known simply as Norfolk Labor (Pitcairn-Norfolk: Norfuk Leyba), is the Norfolk Island branch of the Australian Labor Party (ALP). It operated as a sub-branch of the ACT Labor Party.

At the 2010 election, Labor ran four candidates, receiving 13.59% of the total vote.

The party was last led by Mike King, who also served as Leader of the Opposition until March 2013.

At the 2015 status referendum, the party supported the "no" vote, which was ultimately unsuccessful.

Norfolk Labor faded away sometime after 2015, having not contested the 2013 election.
