The men's 400 metre freestyle at the 2007 World Aquatics Championships took place on 25 March (preliminaries and finals[1] [2]) at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia.

On 11 September 2007, the Court of Arbitration for Sport, as part of a retroactive 18-month suspension for an earlier doping infraction, nullified Tunisia's Oussama Mellouli's results from these championships, which affected this event and the men's 800 metre freestyle in particular.
