SS Prinses Amalia was a Dutch steam ship built for the Netherland Line (Dutch Stoomvaart Maatschappij Nederland (SMN) or Netherlands Steamship Company) in 1874 by John Elder & Co. of Govan on the River Clyde.
Prinses Amalia was one of the earliest steamers to operate in the Amsterdam - Java service (inaugurated by SMN in 1871), spending her entire service life on this route.
She was broken up at Genoa in 1906 having been renamed Amalia for her final delivery voyage.
