The Suwałki Agreement, Treaty of Suvalkai, or Suwalki Treaty (, ) was an agreement signed in the town of Suwałki between Poland and Lithuania on October 7, 1920. It was registered in the League of Nations Treaty Series on January 19, 1922.

Polish Chief of State, Józef Piłsudski, had planned to take over the city since mid-September in a false flag operation
