This is a list of British Asian people, namely people in the United Kingdom whose ethnic origin lies in South Asia (for the purposes of the list including Burma). Those with an East Asian or West Asian ("Middle Eastern") background are not listed; in British English, "Asian" tends to refer to the South (Indian subcontinent) rather than the East or West of the continent.
