Valdoie (in French pronounced as /valdwa/) is a commune in the Territoire de Belfort department in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in northeastern France. It is located to the North of the city of Belfort and comprises part of greater Belfort.
Valdoie is situated on the river Savoureuse (Doubs basin). The name is thought to have come from combining the Latin word Vadum (meaning shallow crossing) and the Celtic word Oye (meaning water or river).
