The List of Montenegrin records in athletics documents the best performances by athletes representing Montenegro in officially recognized track and field events. These records are maintained and regularly updated by the Athletic Federation of Montenegro (Atletski savez Crne Gore – ASC‑G), the national governing body responsible for athletics in the country.
