Godod, officially the Municipality of Godod (; Subanen: Benwa Godod; Chavacano: Municipalidad de Godod; ), is a municipality in the province of Zamboanga del Norte, Philippines. According to the 2024 census, it has a population of 18,040 people.

==History== Through Batas Pambansa Blg. 146 which was approved on February 8, 1982, twelve barangays in southern Salug were carved out to establish Godod, with one with the same name to be the seat of government. A plebiscite for ratification, along with ten more newly-created local entities including nearby Bacungan, was held on May 17, coinciding with the barangay elections.
