王國國璽（英語：Great Seal of the Realm，又稱英國國璽，Great Seal of the United Kingdom；在《1707年聯合法令》之前被稱為英格蘭國璽，Great Seal of England；在《1800年联合法令》之前則稱為大不列顛國璽，Great Seal of Great Britain）為一枚標明經英國君主同意之重要國書的印章。
自從14世紀起，蘇格蘭就擁有自己的國璽。在涉及英格蘭與蘇格蘭聯合的《1707年聯合法令》當中，啟用了單一一枚聯合王國的國璽[1]。然而，該法案也同樣採用一枚獨立的蘇格蘭璽印（該印章仍持續稱之為蘇格蘭國璽，雖然技術上來說並非同一枚）。威爾斯國璽則於2011年啟用[2]。
