This is a list of the world's bus operating companies listed by country, with countries placed alphabetically by continent and country.
Wherever possible, each country's bus operating companies are divided by the nature of their operations. Operations may be logically divided by defining attributes such as:
- Ownership: private or public?
- Primary function: commuter service, school buses, tours/event buses, or bus charters?
- Area served: cross-national, cross-provincial, or a single province?
- Activity: Is the bus company currently in operation?
This list includes companies operating now. The list does not include bus manufacturers or repairers. It contains mostly public transit operators.
