Standar terbuka adalah standar yang publikasinya tersedia untuk umum dan memiliki berbagai hak dalam penggunaannya, dan mungkin juga memiliki berbagai ketentuan bagaimana ia dirancang (misalnya proses terbuka). Tidak ada definisi tunggal dan perbedaan interpretasi dalam penggunaannya.
Istilah "standar" dan "terbuka" memiliki berbagai makna yang terkait dengan penggunaannya. Ada sejumlah definisi standar terbuka yang menekankan aspek berbeda dari keterbukaan, termasuk spesifikasi yang dihasilkan, keterbukaan proses pembuatannya, dan kepemilikan hak dalam standar. Istilah "standar" kadang-kadang dibatasi pada teknologi yang disetujui oleh komite formal yang bisa diikuti oleh semua pihak berkepentingan dan beroperasi berdasarkan konsensus.
