Dimitar Yanev Stanchov, sometimes transliterated as Stancioff, (Bulgarian: Димитър Янев Станчов) (21 May 1863 - 23 March 1940) was a Bulgarian diplomat and politician who served as acting Prime Minister from 12–16 March 1907 following the assassination of Dimitar Petkov. Stanchov also served as foreign minister in two cabinets, as well as ambassador to the United Kingdom (1908 and 1920–1921), France (1908–1915), Belgium (1910–1915 and 1922–1924), Italy (1915) and the Netherlands (1922–1924). He actively opposed Bulgaria's entry in World War I, for which he was temporarily removed from duty. In 1919, after Bulgaria's defeat, he was the secretary of the Bulgarian delegation at the signing of the Treaty of Neuilly-sur-Seine. He resigned from his diplomatic positions in 1924 due to disagreements with the right-wing policies of Aleksandar Tsankov's cabinet.

From 1925 to 1929 Stanchov was president of the Bulgarian Olympic Committee.

Stanchov married Anna de Grenaud in 1889. One of the couple's five children, Nadezhda Stanchova, became Bulgaria's first woman on diplomatic service during the 1910s and 1920s. A grandson, Ivan Stanchov, served as ambassador of Bulgaria to the United Kingdom and to Ireland (1991–1994) and as minister of foreign affairs in Reneta Indzhova's caretaker government (October 1994-January 1995).
