The 1936–37 Yugoslav Football Championship officially called State Championship (Serbo-Croatian and Slovene: Državno prvenstvo; Државно првенство), was the 14th season of the main association football competition in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.

The defending champions were BSK based in the capital Belgrade, who finished third. The season was won by Croatian club Građanski Zagreb led by Hungarian manager Márton Bukovi, with seven points in front of runners-up Hajduk Split. This was the club's fourth Yugoslav national title, and the first one in nearly a decade, having previously won the 1923, 1926 and 1928 editions.
