**Litterae Iaponiae** sunt litterae in Iaponia vel Iaponice a peregrinantibus conscriptae. Apud auctores Iaponienses multum olim valebat usus culturalis cum Sinis litterisque Sinarum, saepe Mandarinice conceptis. Litterae praeterea Indiae certam auctoritatem eis habebant, Buddhismo in culturam Iaponiensem invecto. Ad ultimum, litterae Iaponiae modum scribendi sui generis evolvit, quamquam pondus litterarum linguaeque classicae Sinarum usque ad finem aetatis Edoensis manebat. E medio saeculo undevicensimo, cum Iaponia suos portus commercio diplomatiaeque Occidentalibus aperiret, litterae Occidentales Orientalesque magnopere commisceri coeperunt, et iam commiscentur.
