Lutayan, officially the Municipality of Lutayan (Hiligaynon: Banwa sang Lutayan; Maguindanaon: Inged nu Lutayan, Jawi: ايڠد نو لتاين; Tagalog: Bayan ng Lutayan), is a 2nd class municipality in the province of Sultan Kudarat, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 65,644 people.[3]

This lakeside town shares Lake Buluan with its neighboring municipality, Buluan, Maguindanao. Lutayan was carved out from Buluan in 1966. The first appointed mayor was the wife of the then-mayor of Buluan, a royalty from the Buayan Sultanate, Bai Linilang Mangelen. She was also the first ever elected Mayor of the town and served for two decades.
