Marie Bouzková and Lucie Hradecká defeated Ons Jabeur and Ellen Perez in the final, 6–4, 2–6, , to win the doubles title at the 2021 Birmingham Classic. This was Hradecká's 25th career WTA Tour doubles title and Bouzková's first career title overall.
Hsieh Su-wei and Barbora Strýcová were the defending champions from when the tournament was last held in 2019. Because Strýcová retired from professional tennis in May 2021, Hsieh played alongside Elise Mertens, but lost in the semifinals to Jabeur and Perez.
