In this paper, we study the Dirac equation for an electron constrained to move on a catenoid surface. We decoupled the two components of the spinor and obtained two Klein-Gordon-like equations. Analytical solutions were obtained using supersymetric quantum mechanics for two cases, namely the constant Fermi velocity and the position-dependent Fermi velocity cases.
