Ratnanagar () is a municipality in the Chitwan District of Bagmati Province, Nepal. It was established in 1997 through the merger of the former Village Development Committees of Old-Ratnanagar and Panchakanya.

Located adjacent to Chitwan National Park, Ratnanagar serves as a gateway to the park. Agriculture is the primary occupation, with rice, maize, mustard, and vegetables as major crops. Poultry farming and animal husbandry also contribute significantly to the local economy. Tourism is another important sector, particularly in nearby Sauraha, a hub for hotels, resorts, shops, and an Elephant Breeding Station.
