The Courier & Advertiser, more commonly known as simply The Courier, is a broadsheet newspaper published by DC Thomson in Dundee, Scotland. It is printed in six daily editions: the Early edition, and regional editions for Fife, north-east Fife, Perth, Angus and Dundee.

Established in 1801 as the Dundee Courier & Argus, the entire front page of The Courier used to contain classified advertisements - a traditional newspaper format for many years. As one of the UK's biggest selling morning regional newspapers [1] with daily circulation of around 80,000 [2], The Courier was unusual in maintaining this format until 1992, when it adopted a conventional headline-news format.
