The British Academy Television Craft Award for Best Writer: Comedy is one of the categories presented by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) within the British Academy Television Craft Awards, the craft awards were established in 2000 with their own, separate ceremony as a way to spotlight technical achievements, without being overshadowed by the main production categories.

Prior to 2013, there was a united category named Best Writer for both drama and comedy series, in 2013 this category was split into two separate categories, Writer: Drama and Writer: Comedy.
