The 2021/22 FIS Nordic Combined World Cup, organized by the International Ski Federation was the 39th Nordic Combined World Cup season for men, and the 2nd season for women. The men's competition started in Ruka, Finland, and the women's competition in Lillehammer, Norway. Both competitions concluded in Schonach, Germany.[1][2]

Norwegian Jarl Magnus Riiber and American Tara Geraghty-Moats are the defending overall champions from the 2020–21 season. The American will not defend her title due to the change of sport from Nordic combined to biathlon.[3]

As of this season, women's mass start and mixed competitions are making their debut.

On 1 March 2022, following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, FIS decided to exclude athletes from Russia and Belarus from FIS competitions, with an immediate effect.[4]

With his victory in Schonach, Jarl Magnus Riiber took his 49th World Cup win, overtaking Hannu Manninen (48 wins) in the overall standings and now is the most successful nordic combined skier in the history of the World Cup.
