Sultan Mansur Shah ibni Almarhum Sultan Ahmad Shah I (died 1519) is the fourth Sultan of Pahang who reigned from 1495 to 1519. He reigned jointly with his cousin, Abdul Jamil Shah I who succeeded on the abdication of his father, Ahmad Shah I in 1495.

Known as Raja Mansur before his accession, he is the son of the second Sultan of Pahang, Ahmad Shah I by his wife, a daughter of Bendahara Tun Hamzah. He ascended to the throne at a very young age following the abdication of his father, Ahmad Shah I, who went into religious seclusion in 1495. As a result, he reigned under the rule of his cousin, Abdul Jamil Shah I and assumed full control only in 1512 after the death of the latter.

Recognising Pahang was a vassal of Melaka, the Portuguese who had established themselves after the conquest of Melaka, demanded tribute from Pahang. Mansur Shah I refused to pay the annual tribute, which resulted in open warfare between Pahang and the Portuguese.

In 1519, Mansur Shah was slain by his hulubalang for committing adultery with one of his stepmothers.
