Karaite or Karaites (Anglicized Turkic: Karaylar) may refer to:
- Karaite Judaism, a Jewish religious movement that rejects the Talmud
- Crimean Karaites, also known as Karaim and Qarays, an ethnic group derived from Turkic-speaking adherents of Karaism in Eastern Europe
- Karaim language, Turkic Karaite language with Hebrew influences historically spoken by the Crimean Karaites
- In older texts or those about Turkic Karaites it may instead refer to the Keraites also called Karaits,[1] a Turco-Mongol tribe.[2][3] Careful examination of the sources is therefore required to avoid confusion.
