Stigmella szoecsiella is a moth of the family Nepticulidae. It is found in Hungary, Italy, Greece and Turkey.

The wingspan is 4.7-5.2 mm. Adults are on wing from June to August.

The larvae feed on Quercus cerris and Quercus trojana. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine consists of a fairly slender corridor. The frass is concentrated in a central band that occupies about two thirds of the width of the gallery.
