Perstorp Municipality (Swedish: Perstorps kommun) is a municipality in Skåne County in southern Sweden. Its seat is located in the town Perstorp.
Perstorp was made a market town (köping) in 1947. It was amalgamated with Oderljunga in the first of the two nationwide local government reforms (1952). The reform of 1971 did not bring any new amalgamations, but the köping status was abolished.
