Ins ( _fr. Anet) is a municipality in the district of Erlach in the canton of Berne in Switzerland.

The official language is German, spoken by 82.9% of the population.

Despite being a small municipality, Ins serves as a center for the neighbouring communities, which are even smaller in both population and area. Ins lies at the end of the Biel-Täuffelen-Ins (BTI) rail line, and is also served by the Ins-Erlach postbus.

The Swiss painter and illustrator Albert Anker lived in Ins until his death in 1910.
