The 6th Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party was in session from 1928 to 1945, during most of the Chinese Civil War, and during the Second Sino-Japanese War. It held seven plenary sessions in this period. It was formally preceded by the 5th Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party. It was the first central committee to have Mao Zedong as a high-ranking member. It was succeeded by the 7th Central Committee.

It had 23 members and 13 alternate members.[1]

Its first plenary session elected the 6th Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party in Moscow in 1928, as it would not have been safe to have the session in the Republic of China.
