Indo-Portuguese creoles are the several Portuguese creoles spoken in the erstwhile Portuguese Indian settlements, Cochin Portuguese Creole, Fort Bassein, Goa and Damaon, Portuguese Ceylon etc; in present-day India and Sri Lanka. These creoles are now mostly extinct or endangered. They have substantial European Portuguese words in their grammars or lexicons:
- Ceylon Portuguese creole (Sri Lanka)
- Damaon and Dio Portuguese creole
- Kristi language (Chaul Portuguese creole)
- Norteiro creole (Bassein) †
- Bombay Portuguese creole †
- Goa Portuguese creole †
- Korlai Portuguese
- Cochin Portuguese creole †
- Cannanore Portuguese creole
- Bengali Portuguese creole †
The expression Indo-Portuguese may refer not only to the creoles but also to the creole people groups of Luso-Indians and Portuguese Burghers, who spoke them on the Indian subcontinent.
