World record progression 200 metres backstroke

Main article: List of world records in swimming
Graphs of the progression of the World Records in all four strokes (50 m, 100 m and 200 m distances) until 2010.

This is a history of the progression of the world record for the 200-meter backstroke event. It is a listing of the fastest-time-ever swum in the event, in both long course (50-meter) and short course (25-meter) swimming pools. These records are maintained/recognized by FINA, which oversees international competitive swimming and aquatics.

The long course records are historically older than the short course records; the latter having only been recognized since the early 1990s.

- denotes top performance for athletes in the top 25 200 m backstroke times
- denotes lesser performances, still in the top 25 200 m backstroke times, by repeat athletes
- denotes top performance (only) for other top 25 athletes who fall outside the top 25 200 m backstroke times
