This is the discography of American third wave ska band No Doubt. No Doubt has released five studio albums, two compilation albums, nineteen singles, three long form music videos, and two box sets.

No Doubt was formed in Anaheim, California in 1986.[1] After many line-up changes, it released its self-titled debut album in 1992, but its ska-pop sound failed due to the popularity of the grunge movement. Following the self-released Beacon Street Collection, Tragic Kingdom was released in 1995 and rode the surge of ska punk to become one of the best-selling albums, largely due to the international success of its third single "Don't Speak".[2]

No Doubt's follow-up, Return of Saturn, was released nearly five years later and was quickly certified Platinum in the U.S., but failed to match the success of Tragic Kingdom. The band collaborated with many producers and other artists to record Rock Steady in under a year, mixing the band's New Wave and pop sounds with ragga music.[3] The album was a comeback for the band, selling well and yielding career-highest singles chart positions. After Rock Steady, the band released several compilations and went on hiatus. Singer Gwen Stefani released two solo albums (see Gwen Stefani discography), and guitarist Tom Dumont's side project Invincible Overlord, a collaboration with Ted Matson, released The Living Album and a remix of No Doubt's "Bathwater" on its website.
