Slovianoserbsk Raion (Ukrainian: Слов’яносербський район) is a raion (district) in Luhansk Oblast of eastern Ukraine. The administrative center of the raion is the urban-type settlement of Slovianoserbsk. It was named after Slavo-Serbia, an imperial Russian province that existed between 1753–64. Population: 55,121 (2013 est.).

Since 2014, the raion has been controlled by forces of the Luhansk People's Republic. To facilitate the governance of Luhansk Oblast during the War in Donbass, the Verkhovna Rada on 7 October 2014 made some changes in the administrative divisions, so that the localities in the government-controlled areas were grouped into districts. In particular, some areas were transferred from Slovianoserbsk Raion to Novoaidar Raion.
