The Stieng people (Vietnamese: Xtiêng) are an ethnic group of Vietnam and Cambodia. They speak Stieng, a language in the Bahnaric group of the Mon–Khmer languages.
Most Stieng live in the Binh Duong Province and Dong Nai Province of southeastern Vietnam. In Cambodia, they are grouped under the heading Khmer Loeu, referring to non-Khmer ethnic groups.
Politically, the Stieng have also been grouped as one of the ethnic groups in the Degar peoples.
