The 2023 IIHF U18 World Championship Division I is two international under-18 ice hockey tournaments organised by the International Ice Hockey Federation. The Division I A and Division I B tournaments represent the second and the third tier of the IIHF World U18 Championship.

In the 'B' tournament Austria clinched the championship (and promotion) on the final day with a victory over South Korea before the hosts game against Italy.[1] Their only loss was Poland's only win despite high hopes of an improved roster with a new coach, but were relegated.[2]
