Daur Arshba (born 28 March 1962) is a politician from Abkhazia. He is the Head of the Presidential Administration, having been appointed by President Raul Khajimba on 10 October 2016, and Chairman of the pro-government Forum for the National Unity of Abkhazia. In the past, he has served as Vice Speaker of the People's Assembly and as Head of Tkvarcheli District.

Arshba was born in Tkvarcheli. From 1979 until 1984, he studied at the Faculty for History and Law of the Abkhazian State University.

In September 1996, Arshba became head of the International Department of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, and in February 1997, First Deputy Minister.

On 31 March 2003, Arshba was appointed as head of the Tkvarcheli District by President Vladislav Ardzinba, succeeding Valeri Kharchilava, who had announced his desire to resign on the 27th. He was replaced by Ardzinba's successor Sergei Bagapsh in 2005.

Arshba was one of the initiators of the Forum for the National Unity of Abkhazia (FNUA), founded on 8 February 2005 to unite 12 opposition organisations that had supported Raul Khajimba in the October 2004 presidential election. When the FNUA became a socio-political movement on 10 October 2005, Arshba was elected one of its three co-chairmen. On 6 March 2008 the FNUA was transformed into a political party, of which Arshba became one of two co-chairmen.

In the March 2007 elections, Arshba successfully ran for a seat of the 4th convocation of the People's Assembly of Abkhazia in constituency no. 30 (Tkvarcheli), defeating in the first round his only opponent, incumbent deputy Ilia Gamisonia.
