Luo Wen-jia (Chinese: 羅文嘉; pinyin: Luó Wénjiā; Hakka: Lò Vùn-kâ; born 1 January 1966) is a Taiwanese politician who is the current vice chairman and secretary-general of the Straits Exchange Foundation. He is a member of the Democratic Progressive Party.
Luo worked closely with Chen Shui-bian, first as Chen's legislative assistant, and later within Taipei City Government while Chen was mayor. When Chen was elected president in 2000, Luo joined the Executive Yuan as vice minister of the Council of Cultural Affairs. Between 2002 and 2004, Luo was a member of the Legislative Yuan. He left the legislature for an appointment as minister of the Council for Hakka Affairs, from which he stepped down in 2005 to run unsuccessfully for the Taipei County magistracy. Luo was subsequently defeated as a legislative candidate in 2008. Luo returned to politics in 2019, when he was named secretary-general of the Democratic Progressive Party.
