Microsoft Office 2021 (third release codenamed Office 16) is a version of the Microsoft Office suite of applications for the Microsoft Windows and macOS operating systems. It was released on October 5, 2021.[6] A successor, Microsoft Office 2024 is expected to be rolled out in the second half of 2024.[7]

Office 2021 retains the same major version number of 16 that previous versions of Office had. It introduces new dynamic arrays, XLOOKUP[8] features for Excel, full dark-mode support and performance improvements.[9][10][11] Support for retail versions of Office 2021 will end on October 13, 2026; unlike older versions of Office, there is no extended support period.[12]
