The Sapindales is an order of flowering plants included among the rosid subgroup of dicotyledons. Inclusion of the following families is now typical of newer taxonomic schemes:
- Family Sapindaceae (soapberry family)
- Family Nitrariaceae
- Family Rutaceae (citrus family)
- Family Meliaceae (mahogany family)
- Family Simaroubaceae
- Family Anacardiaceae (cashew family)
- Family Burseriaceae (frankincense family)
- Family Kirkiaceae
Under the older Cronquist system, some genera of Sapindaceae were placed in separate families (Aceraceae and Hippocastanaceae), and the following families were included in the Sapindales:
- Family Staphyleaceae
- Family Melianthaceae
- Family Bretschneideraceae
- Family Akaniaceae
- Family Julianiaceae
- Family Cneoraceae
- Family Zygophyllaceae
Species comprising the Nitrariaceae were included within the Zygophyllaceae, and those in the Kirkiaceae within the Simaroubaceae.da:Sæbetræ-ordenen (Sapindales) de:Seifenbaumartige fr:Sapindales it:Sapindales sv:Sapinidala
