直辖殖民地（英文：Crown colony，又译皇家殖民地或皇室殖民地）是昔日英格兰和后来的英帝国辖下的一种殖民地。

直辖殖民地由君主任命的总督统治。19世纪中叶以前，君主听从藩政大臣的建议任命总督。英格兰首个直辖殖民地（当时称为皇家殖民地）是维珍尼亚殖民地；官方于1624年撤销维珍尼亚公司的皇家特许状，直接管辖该地。

19世纪中叶以先，「直辖殖民地」主要用于称呼英格兰和大不列颠以战争夺得的殖民地，例如千里达和多巴哥、英属圭亚那；后来，除了英属印度诸省和定居殖民地以外，「直辖殖民地」这名字也广泛其他殖民地，例如上下加拿大、纽芬兰、英属哥伦比亚、新南威尔斯、昆士兰、南澳洲、塔斯曼尼亚、维多利亚、西澳洲、新西兰，这些殖民地后来成为自治领。

A Crown colony, also known in the 17th century as royal colony, was a type of colonial administration of the British overseas territories.

Crown, or royal, colonies were ruled by a governor appointed by the monarch. By the middle of the 19th century, the sovereign appointed royal governors on the advice of the Secretary of State for the Colonies. Under the name of "royal colony", the first of what would later become known as Crown colonies was the English Colony of Virginia in the present-day United States, after the Crown, in 1624, revoked the royal charter it had granted to the Virginia Company, taking over direct administration.
