'''Han Xuan''' ({{fl.}} 200s–210) was a government official who lived during the late [[Eastern Han dynasty]] of China. He served as the Administrator ({{lang|zh|太守}}) of Changsha Commandery (長沙郡; around present-day [[Changsha]], [[Hunan]]). After Liu Biao's death in 208, the northern part of Jing Province was divided between two of Liu Biao's sons, [[Liu Qi (Liu Biao's son)|Liu Qi]] and [[Liu Cong (Han dynasty)|Liu Cong]]. The commanderies in southern Jing Province were ruled by their respective Administrators: [[Zhao Fan]], [[Jin Xuan]], [[Liu Du]] and Han Xuan. In 209, Liu Bei attacked the four southern Jing commanderies, and all four Administrators surrendered. <ref>''Sanguozhi'' vol. 32</ref>
