This is a list of busiest London Underground stations for the 2022 calendar year. The dataset records patterns of mobility for the first full year after travel restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom were completely eliminated, with increased levels of mobility when compared with the 2021 data although still not fully recovered from 2019.

The London Underground is a rapid transit system in the United Kingdom that serves London and the neighbouring counties of Essex, Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire. Its first section opened in 1863. Annualised entry/exit counts were recorded at 270 stations in 2022. [a] In 2022, King's Cross St Pancras was the busiest station on the network, used by over 69.94 million passengers, while Roding Valley was the least used with 259,271 passengers. [b] Data for 2022 was published on 4 October 2023. [1]
