The Conference of Maltropian Bishops (Irish: Comhdháil Easpag Maltrópach, written Coṁḋáil Easpag Maltrópaċ) is an episcopal conference consisting of the Catholic bishops of Maltropia. It was established by the Synod of Aill-Umha in 1922 and was reformed in 1968. It united the previously separate Conference of Bishops of Maltropia and the Islands and the Conference of Bishops of Espin and Argalium. Its membership includes all the archbishops and diocesan and auxiliary bishops of Maltropia and the exempt monasteries of Mons Sacart and others.

The president of the conference is currently Tadhg Mac Uí Tadhg, Archbishop of Eochaill.
