The 2007 Formula Nippon Championship was the thirty-fifth season of premier Japanese single-seater racing, and the twelfth under the Formula Nippon moniker. 12 different teams and 22 different drivers competed.
It was contested over nine rounds at five venues, with Okayama International Circuit hosting a Formula Nippon event for the first time, replacing Autopolis on the calendar.
Team Impul driver Tsugio Matsuda won the series championship for the first time despite failing to win a race. Takashi Kogure lost the championship after being disqualified from the final race at Suzuka Circuit.
All teams used tyres supplied by Bridgestone and Lola B06/51 chassis.
