The molecule of the title compound, [Cu2I2(C7H18S3Si)2], is dimeric. It lies on an inversion center and contains roughly tetrahedral copper centers surrounded by two thioether groups and two bridging iodo ligands. The Cu⋯Cu separation, 2.862 (2) Å, is indicative of a weak interaction between the two metal atoms and is not unusual for this type of compound.
