Egon Matt (born 23 April 1952) is a physician and politician from Liechtenstein who served in the Landtag of Liechtenstein from 1997 to 2001.[1]

He received a doctorate in medicine in 1978 and worked in various hospitals, including in Sierra Leone.[1][2] He opened his own medical practice in Mauren in 1988.[1] He was a co-president of the Free List from 2005 to 2009, alongside Claudia Heeb-Fleck.[1][3] Following a disappointing result for the Free List in the 2009 elections, Matt and Heeb-Fleck resigned as president and they were succeeded by Wolfgang Marxer in June.[3]

In the run-up to the 2003 Liechtenstein constitutional referendum, Matt alongside other former members of the Landtag, opposed the proposed changes by the prince.[4]
