The Chile national ice hockey team () is the national men's ice hockey team of Chile and is controlled by the Chilean Ice and Inline Hockey Federation.

History The Chilean Ice and Inline Hockey Federation, known in Spanish as the Federación Chilena de Hockey en Línea y en Hielo (FCHLH), was founded and joined the IIHF in 2000. It was the third South American nation to join the IIHF after Brazil and Argentina. Chile is currently an IIHF affiliate member, and therefore not recognized for ice hockey, just inline hockey.
