The Moluccan swiftlet is a small bird in the swift family Apodidae, found on Sulawesi and the Maluku Islands in Indonesia. It measures about 10 centimeters in length, with dark upperparts, a grayish rump band, and pale brown underparts. Two of its populations, the Sulawesi swiftlet and the Seram swiftlet, have at times been treated as separate species, though taxonomic opinion has shifted on the question. It is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN.
