Edward Chauncey Luard (1856 — 22 September 1900) was a British planter in Demerara, British Guiana (now Guyana). He was influential among the planter community in British Guiana and was a member of the Court of Policy for East Demerara. He led the campaign to introduce a ballot into the colony's constitution in 1895.

A noted philatelist, Luard's collection of the stamps of British Guiana included examples of the "cottonreel" issues, some of which are now part of the Royal Philatelic Collection.
