The 2008–09 UCI Europe Tour was the fifth season of the UCI Europe Tour. The season began on 19 October 2008 with the Chrono des Nations and ended on 15 October 2009 with the Giro del Piemonte.

The points leader, based on the cumulative results of previous races, wears the UCI Europe Tour cycling jersey. Enrico Gasparotto of Italy was the defending champion of the 2007–08 UCI Europe Tour. Giovanni Visconti was crowned as the 2008–09 UCI Europe Tour.

Throughout the season, points are awarded to the top finishers of stages within stage races and the final general classification standings of each of the stages races and one-day events. The quality and complexity of a race also determines how many points are awarded to the top finishers, the higher the UCI rating of a race, the more points are awarded.

The UCI ratings from highest to lowest are as follows:

  • Multi-day events: 2.HC, 2.1 and 2.2
  • One-day events: 1.HC, 1.1 and 1.2
