We show that mostly right-handed Dirac sneutrinos are a viable supersymmetric light dark matter candidate. While the Dirac sneutrino scatters with nuclei dominantly through the Z-boson exchange and is stringently constrained by the invisible decay width of the Z boson, it is possible to realize a large enough cross section with the nucleon to account for possible signals observed at direct dark matter searches, such as CDMS II(Si) or CoGeNT. Even if the XENON100 limit is taken into account, a small part of the signal region for CDMS II(Si) events remains outside the region excluded by XENON100.
