# 2000 Ericsson Open – Women's doubles

Martina Hingis and Jana Novotná were the defending champions, but none of them competed this year. Novotná also retired at the end of the 1999 season.
Julie Halard-Decugis and Ai Sugiyama won the title by defeating Nicole Arendt and Manon Bollegraf 4–6, 7–5, 6–4 in the final. It was the 9th title for Halard-Decugis and the 12th title for Sugiyama in their respective careers. It was also the 2nd title for the pair during the season, after their win in Sydney.
