The Archbishop of Erbil of the Chaldeans (or archepach) is the most senior member of the Catholic clergy in the Chaldean Catholic Archeparchy of Erbil.

Erbil is a Chaldean Rite see.

The archdiocese was split from the Chaldean Catholic Archeparchy of Kirkuk on the 7 March 1968. It revives an ancient diocese of the Assyrian Church of the East, which lapsed in the seventeenth century.
