Erik Lindh (born 24 May 1964) is a former international Swedish table tennis player who competed in the 1988 Summer Olympics and in the 1992 Summer Olympics.[1]

In the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, he finished in third place and won the bronze medal.[2]

He was a member of the winning Swedish teams in the 1989, 1991, and 1993 World Table Tennis Team Championships.
