The 2006–07 UCI Oceania Tour was the third season of the UCI Oceania Tour. The season began on 8 October 2006 with the Herald Sun Tour and ended on 5 May 2007 with the Oceania Cycling Championships.

The points leader, based on the cumulative results of previous races, wears the UCI Oceania Tour cycling jersey. Gordon McCauley of New Zealand was the defending champion of the 2005–06 UCI Oceania Tour. Robert McLachlan of Australia was crowned as the 2006–07 UCI Oceania Tour champion.

Throughout the season, points are awarded to the top finishers of stages within stage races and the final general classification standings of each of the stages races and one-day events. The quality and complexity of a race also determines how many points are awarded to the top finishers, the higher the UCI rating of a race, the more points are awarded. The UCI ratings from highest to lowest are as follows:

  • Multi-day events: 2.HC, 2.1 and 2.2
  • One-day events: 1.HC, 1.1 and 1.2
