Het wereldkampioenschap halve marathon 1999 vond plaats op 3 oktober 1999. Het was de achtste keer dat de IAAF een wedstrijd organiseerde met als inzet de wereldtitel op de halve marathon. De wedstrijd vond plaats in de Italiaanse stad Palermo.
In totaal namen 193 atleten (waarvan 120 mannen en 73 vrouwen) uit 48 landen deel. Voor zowel de mannen als de vrouwen werd naast een individueel klassement ook een teamklassement samengesteld.
