The Munshibari (Bengali: মুন্সীবাড়ী) estate was established in the 18th century in Bengal (present day Chandpur District, Chittagong Division in Bangladesh). It was held by a family of Munshis.

The family was of Turkish descent and was subinfeudated under the rulers of Bengal, on behalf of whom they collected land revenues in the area. In the 19th century, the family traded jute with the British East India Company. They built mosques, schools and other structures around the estate which still stand today in their homestead of Taltoli.
