Michael Jackson singles discography

This article lists the singles discography of Michael Jackson, with a partial list of singles released physically and other singles (non-charting reissues are not included). Included are peak chart positions for the United States, Australia, Austria4, Canada, France5, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Spain, Sweden4, Switzerland and United Kingdom; also, certifications by RIAA, ARIA, Music Canada, IFPI Denmark, SNEP, BVMI, IFPI Norway, Recorded Music NZ, PROMUSICAE, IFPI Switzerland, and BPI.

In some countries, such as the United Kingdom and Canada, the value of the awards has changed over time; since 1989, the certification is based on the single's year of release. Since 1997, in the United States and Australia, the certification is based on the year an award is given.
