Cianjur Regency (Indonesian: Kabupaten Cianjur, pronounced [kabuˌpat̪ɛn t͡ʃiˈaɲd͡ʒʊr]; Sundanese: Kabupatén Cianjur) is a regency (kabupaten) of West Java, Indonesia. The area of the regency is 3,614.38 km and its population at the 2010 Census was 2,171,281; the 2020 Census produced a total of 2,477,560 and the official estimate published by the regency government as at 2025 was 2,610,316 (comprising 1,333,933 males and 1,276,383 females).

Northern parts of the regency form a valley (above the 'neck' or narrowest part of the regency), and are far more densely populated than southern regions, with 68.4% of the regency's population in just 30.0% of its area. As such, a portion of the northern valley (consisting of Cugenang, Pacet, Sukaresmi and Cipanas Districts in the far northwest of the regency) was briefly included in a definition of Greater Jakarta called Jabodetabekjur (with the "jur" standing for Cianjur).
