Darabani (Romanian pronunciation: [daraˈbanʲ]) is a town in Botoșani County, Western Moldavia, Romania, and is the northernmost town in Romania. It administers three villages: Bajura, Eșanca, and Lișmănița.

The town lies on the right bank of the river Prut, close to the triple border between Romania, Ukraine, and Moldova.

The area is a setting for the 2019 Amazon Studios TV series Hanna and plays a significant role in the development of the titular character from that series.
