We present a new catalogue of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) in the Galaxy. The catalogue contains source names, coordinates, source types, fluxes, distances, system parameters, and other characteristic properties of 349 LMXBs, including LMXBs that were newly discovered or re-classified since the latest releases of the catalogues by Liu et al. (2007A&A...469..807L, Cat. J/A+A/469/807) and Ritter & Kolb (2003A&A...404..301R, Cat. B/cb). The aim of this catalogue is to provide a list of all currently known Galactic objects identified as LMXBs with some basic information on each system (including X-ray and optical/IR properties where possible). Literature published before May 2023 has, as far as possible, been taken into account when compiling this information. References for all reported properties as well as object finding charts in several energy bands are provided as part of the catalogue. We plan to update the catalogue regularly, in particular to reflect new objects discovered in the ongoing large scale surveys such as Gaia and eROSITA.
