The European Taekwondo Championships are the European senior championships in Taekwondo, first held in Barcelona in 1976. The event is held every two years and is organized by the European Taekwondo Union, the continental affiliate of World Taekwondo, which organises and controls Olympic style taekwondo. An additional event, the G4 Extra European Taekwondo Championships were exceptionally held in 2019.

The championships should not be confused with:

  • the European Games taekwondo competitions, which form part of a continental multi-sport event in the Olympic tradition;
  • the EITF European Taekwondo Championships, a championships organised by the European International Taekwondo Federation, the continental arm of the International Taekwondo Federation.ITF is a smaller international federation unaffiliated to either WTF or IOC, and competing under slightly modified rules including the wearing of padded gloves and footwear.
  • the European Taekwondo Championships Olympic Weight Categories, also organised by the ETU but only a G-1 ranked tournament while the European Taekwondo Championships are ranked as a G-4 tournament and also the most important continental competition.

In addition to the kyorugi (full contact fighting) Championships, there are also Para European Championships{{Cite web |title=[World Taekwondo] European Championships Mark a New Era in Para Taekwondo |url=http://m.worldtaekwondo.org/competition/view.html?nid=138905 |access-date=2024-06-30 |website=m.worldtaekwondo.org}}https://europetaekwondo.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Time-Table-PARA.pdf {{Bare URL PDF|date=August 2024}} as well as Poomsae and Para Poomsae Championships held every two years.https://europetaekwondo.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/eventDocuments_b85d17c5-7613-4969-96de-fc8a7d8ba93e.pdf {{Bare URL PDF|date=August 2024}}https://www.dtu.de/fileadmin/Events/Europameisterschaft_Poomsae_2023/Outline_EC_Poomsae_2023_final.pdf {{Bare URL PDF|date=August 2024}}
