Nals (German pronunciation: [nals]; Italian: Nalles [ˈnalles]) is a comune (municipality) and a village in the province of South Tyrol in northern Italy, located about 13 kilometres (8 mi) northwest of the city of Bolzano.

As of 30 November 2010, it had a population of 1,815 and an area of 12.3 square kilometres (4.7 sq mi).

Nals borders the following municipalities: Andrian, Eppan, Gargazon, Unsere Liebe Frau im Walde-St. Felix, Terlan, and Tisens.

The municipality of Nals contains the frazione (subdivision) Sirmian (Sirmiano).

The shield is parted quarterly: the first and fourth quarter represent, in a mirror-like manner, a sable ox on argent; the second and third, always as a mirror-like image, represents an argent swan on azure. These are the arms of the Lords of Boymont-Payrsberg who owned the Schwanburg and Payrsberg Castles. The coat of arms was granted in 1967.

According to the 2024 census, 88.96% of the population speak German, 10.31% Italian and 0.73% Ladin as first language.
