Bogdanovci (, , ) is a village and a municipality in the Vukovar-Srijem County in eastern Croatia. It is located a few kilometers south of Vukovar in eastern Slavonia. Bogdanovci is underdeveloped municipality which is statistically classified as the First Category Area of Special State Concern by the Government of Croatia.

==History== The village was established in the Middle Ages before the Ottoman conquest of the region as a subsidiary settlement of the former village of Mikole. Following the Ottoman conquest Mikole was abandoned with majority of residents moving to Bogdanovci. In the second half of 17th century Calvinists constituted significant part of the local population but they were converted into Catholicism by Franciscan monks who moved to Vukovar from Srijemske Laze.
