Jia Sidao (August 25, 1213 – October 1275), courtesy name Shixian, was a Chinese government official. He was a chancellor of the late Song dynasty of China, and the younger brother of a concubine of Emperor Lizong, who had the special favor of Emperor Duzong. Jia Sidao took part in a land nationalization program in the 1260s and was involved during the Mongol Yuan invasion of the Song, especially during the Battle of Xiangyang and the siege of Ezhou. He was assassinated by a Song dynasty court-designated sheriff charged with his custody in 1275.
