In the title compound, [Ce(C9H4N2O4)(C2H3O2)(H2O)]n, the CeIII ion is coordinated by five O atoms and one N atom from four 1H-benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylato (L) ligands and by two O atoms from an acetate ligand and one aqua ligand, forming a slightly distorted tricapped trigonal-prismatic geometry. The L ligands are bridging, forming a layered polymer parallel to (010). In the crystal, O-H
O and N-H
O hydrogen bonds connect the polymer layers into a three-dimensional network.
