The 2013 Suruga Bank Championship (Japanese: スルガ銀行チャンピオンシップ2013; Spanish: Copa Suruga Bank 2013) was the sixth edition of the Suruga Bank Championship, the club football match co-organized by the Japan Football Association, the football governing body of Japan, CONMEBOL, the football governing body of South America, and J. League, the professional football league of Japan, between the winners of the previous season's J. League Cup and Copa Sudamericana.

The match was contested between Japanese team Kashima Antlers, the 2012 J. League Cup champion, and Brazilian team São Paulo, the 2012 Copa Sudamericana champion. It was hosted by Kashima Antlers at the Kashima Soccer Stadium in Kashima on August 7, 2013.
