BBC World News America is a British/American current affairs news program created by Garth Ancier and produced by BBC News, which premiered on October 1, 2007. Produced out of the BBC's Washington, D.C. bureau, Caitríona Perry and Sumi Somaskanda are the main presenters. Katty Kay – who originally appeared on the program through her role as a Washington-based correspondent for BBC News – served as the main presenter from 2011 to 2021, replacing original co-anchor Matt Frei.

The program is broadcast worldwide on International feed of BBC News channel and, through an agreement with Washington's PBS member station, WETA-TV, is syndicated to PBS member stations and select non-commercial educational independent stations throughout the United States. Until June 2019, Los Angeles–based NCE station KCET handled this distribution.

From its debut until March 25, 2011, the program was one-hour long, airing as a simulcast on BBC America in the United States and BBC News internationally, with the first half-hour (on tape delay) being shown overnights on the BBC News in the United Kingdom. The program was reduced to a half-hour broadcast on March 28, 2011, and was removed from BBC America. On October 31, 2016, the program returned to the BBC News Channel after a five-year absence, and currently airs on the channel at 21:30 GMT for one week in November and one or two weeks in March between when the clocks change in the UK and the US.

From June 11 to July 26, 2018, Monday to Thursday, when BST was in effect, the first half-hour edition was temporarily broadcast for viewers around the world except in North and South America. Then from August 2018, the usual full-hour edition resumed global distribution.

After the domestic BBC News channel and BBC World News merged on 3 April 2023, BBC World News America continues to be broadcast at 22:00 UK time only on the international feed, while the domestic UK feed simulcasts the BBC News at Ten on BBC One.

In some instances, the program had been cut off on its hour broadcast to a few snippets for breaking news events (e.g.: 2007 Karachi bombing). In the case of the 2008 US Election primaries and caucus, the program was extended to three hours (e.g.: 2008 Iowa Caucus) and even up to six hours (e.g.: 2008 Super Tuesday) and was only presented by one host. BBC World News America also covered the three presidential and the only vice-presidential debates.
