Andriy Serdinov (born November 17, 1982 in Luhansk) is a Ukrainian swimmer, who competed in the 2004 Olympics in various categories, and won the bronze medal in the 100m butterfly.

Serdinov was also the world record holder in this event, which stood for approximately five minutes. He broke Michael Klim's mark during the semifinals of the World Championships in Barcelona, Spain, in 2003, only to have Michael Phelps break it in the next semifinal. It was later again broken by Ian Crocker in the final, the day after.

In 2003 he won two golds at the Summer Universiade, in the 50m and 100m Butterfly.
