The UK Country Artists Albums Chart is a music charts compiled in the United Kingdom by the Official Charts Company from sales of songs in the country music genre in record stores and digital downloads. The chart can be viewed on the Official Charts Company's website and is released weekly. The archive on the Official Charts Company website goes back to 30 January 1994, the beginning of the first charting week.[1]
Digital downloads became eligible on the Country Albums chart in June 2009. Prior to that, only vinyl and CD sales were compiled into the chart.

Another chart complied by the Official Charts Company, the UK Country Compilations Chart, collates data on the sales of compilation albums. On March 10, 2024, the UK Country Airplay chart debuted. Monitored by Radiomonitor and the UK wing of the Country Music Association, chart rankings collate information from a range of participating radio stations to identify the most listened to country music single in the UK each week. The chart itself is posted on Holler Country.[2]
