Chiang Wan-an (Chinese: 蔣萬安; born Chang Wan-an; 26 December 1978), also known as Wayne Chiang, is a Taiwanese politician and lawyer who has served as the mayor of Taipei since December 2022. He is the youngest mayor of Taipei since the appointment of Chang Feng-hsu.

Chiang was born in Taipei as the son of politician Chiang Hsiao-yen, who formerly served as a chairman of the Kuomintang. Before entering politics, he graduated from National Chengchi University and earned three law degrees from the University of Pennsylvania. Because Chiang's father claims lineage to the prominent Chiang family, Chiang is believed to be a great-grandson of Chinese leader Chiang Kai-shek.
