The Governorate of Tavastehus ( _ru. Тавастгусская губерния, _sv. Tavastehus län, _fi. Hämeen lääni) was a governorate of the Grand Duchy of Finland, in the Russian Empire, from 1831 to 1917.

In 1831 the Governorate of Nyland-Tavastehus ( _ru. Нюланд-Тавастгусская губерния, _sv. Nylands och Tavastehus län, _fi. Uudenmaan ja Hämeen lääni) was divided into the Governorate of Tavastehus and the Governorate of Nyland.

Following Finland's declaration of independence on December 6, 1917 the governorate became the Province of Häme ( _fi. Hämeen lääni, _sv. Tavastehus län) in the Republic of Finland.
