The Collectio Corbeiensis is a late-antique collection of conciliar canons, decretals letters, and other materials extant in only one manuscript (Paris, BnF, lat. 12097). Both the collection and the manuscripts date to the sixth century.

While the Corbeiensis has been used for various editions, itself remains unedited. The most detailed analysis is by Kaiser. Wurm gives incipt and explicit of most decretal letters. The collection seems not to have been mentioned in the first edition of the Clavis handbook, and was not included in the database.
