Ceyzériat is a commune in the Ain department in eastern France.

Hippolyte Paul Jayr, twice minister during the July monarchy, was mayor of the commune at the end of the 19th century. The French archaeologist and assyriologist Maurice Pézard (1876–1923) died in this commune.

Its inhabitants are known as Ceyzériacois or Ceyzériolans.
