Smaragd (III) from the kindred Smaragd (Hungarian: Smaragd nembeli (III.) Smaragd; died July 1266) was a Hungarian prelate from the gens Smaragd, who served as archbishop of Kalocsa from 1257 to 1265. His father was Smaragd II, voivode of Transylvania in 1206.

He was the provost of Pressburg (today: Bratislava, Slovakia) between 1253 and 1254. As elected provost of Székesfehérvár, he served as royal vice-chancellor between 1254 and 1258.
