The Arab Higher Committee or the Higher National Committee is the central political organ of the Arab Palestinians in Mandatory Palestine.

It is established on April 25, 1936, on the initiative of Haj Amin al-Husayni, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, and comprises the leaders of Palestinian Arab clans and political parties under the mufti's chairmanship.

The Committee is outlawed by the British Mandatory administration in September 1937 after the assassination of a British official.

A committee of the same name is reconstituted by the Arab League in 1945, but goes into abeyance after it proves ineffective during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War

It is sidestepped by Egypt and the Arab League with the formation of the All-Palestine Government in 1948 and both are banned by Jordan.
