The 2022 Men's EuroHockey Indoor Championship was the twentieth edition of the Men's EuroHockey Indoor Championship, the biennial international men's indoor hockey championship of Europe organized by the European Hockey Federation.

It was originally planned to be held alongside the women's tournament from 12 to 16 January 2022 at the Alsterdorfer Sporthalle in Hamburg, Germany.[1] However on 22 December 2021, the tournament was postponed to 8 to 11 December 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Europe.[2]

Austria won their third title by defeating the hosts and defending champions Germany 2–1 in the final. The Netherlands won the bronze medal after defeating Switzerland 10–3.[3]
