Iacobeni () is a commune located in Suceava County, in the historical region of Bukovina, northerneastern Romania. It is composed of two villages, namely Iacobeni and Mestecăniș. It included Botoș and Ciocănești villages until 2002, when these were split off to form Ciocănești commune.

Until the mid 20th century, the commune was also home to a sizeable Zipser German community (part of the larger Bukovina German population of the county and the entire historical region) which initially settled here during the late 18th century, during the modern period, or in the time of the Habsburg monarchy, and later on, Austria-Hungary.
