Nye Borgerlige (NB for short and often translated as the New Right)[b] is a national-conservative and right-wing populist political party in Denmark. Formed by Pernille Vermund and Peter Seier Christensen[c] in 2015, the party first entered the Danish Parliament, the Folketing, in 2019 with four seats (out of 179) and again in 2022 with six. After three defections in the first months after the election, by March 2023 the party's number of seats in the Folketing was reduced to three.

In January 2024, founder and party leader Vermund surprisingly announced that she had left the party, recommending the dissolution of Nye Borgerlige to its national executive, and that the party's parliamentary group had dissolved itself. The national executive announced that it would make a plan for the party's dissolution. Several local party activists opposed the plan, however, and an extraordinary party conference in April 2024 decided to carry on the party, choosing Martin Henriksen as its new leader.

The youth wing of the party was Nye Borgerliges Ungdom (NBU) until its dissolution in March 2024.
