Sir Charles D'Oyly, 7th Baronet (1781–1845), was a British public official and painter from Dacca. He was a member of the Bengal Civil Service based in Calcutta, Dacca and Patna from 1797 to 1838. Although he held senior positions with the East India Company's civil service, he is best known as an amateur artist who published many books featuring engravings and lithographs featuring Indian subject matter.
