Chen Kuei-miao (Chinese: 陳癸淼; pinyin: Chén Guǐmiǎo; 1 July 1934 – 15 August 2014) was a Taiwanese politician who co-founded the New Party, a small pro-China political party, in 1993. Chen served as a member of the Legislative Yuan from 1990 to 1998, as well as an acting Mayor of Tainan City in 1985. Chen was one of many legislators to be implicated in a wide-ranging insider trading scandal that also affected Andrew Oung, among others.

Chen Kuei-miao and other politicians broke away from the ruling Kuomintang in opposition to the rule of then KMT chairman and President of Taiwan, Lee Teng-hui.

Chen died at Cheng Hsin General Hospital in Taipei, Taiwan, on August 15, 2014, at the age of 80. He had suffered from kidney and liver disease.
