The 2023 Toppserien was the 40th season of the highest women's football league in Norway. The season started on 25 March 2023 and ended on 12 November 2023. The season did not include championship and relegation playoffs rounds which were scrapped after only one season. Instead, the league schedule was increased by nine matches per team with each team playing each other three times instead of twice.{{cite web |title=Ny seriestruktur for kvinner vedtatt |url=https://www.fotball.no/turneringer/toppserien/2023/ny-seriestruktur-for-kvinner-vedtatt/ |website=Norges Fotballforbund |language=no |date=5 March 2023}}
