The 2016 CAF Confederation Cup (officially the 2016 Orange CAF Confederation Cup for sponsorship reasons) was the 13th edition of the CAF Confederation Cup, Africa's secondary club football competition organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF).

TP Mazembe defeated MO Béjaïa in the final to win their first CAF Confederation Cup title, and earned the right to play against the winners of the 2016 CAF Champions League in the 2017 CAF Super Cup. Étoile du Sahel were the defending champions, and after qualifying for the 2016 CAF Champions League, they entered the 2016 CAF Confederation Cup after they lost in the Champions League second round, but were eliminated in the semi-finals.
