Phra Chao Inthawichayanon (Thai พระเจ้าอินทวิชยานนท์, died 1897) was Prince of Chiang Mai and ruler of Lannathai from 1870 until his death in 1897. During his reign the ties of the previously semi-independent tributary state with the central government in Bangkok were intensified, culminating in the creation of the Monthon Phayap in 1892, by which Lannathai was formally annexed.
