不知法律不免責[1](拉丁語:Ignorantia juris non excusat[2],英語:Ignorance of the law excuses not[2];拉丁語中又名:ignorantia legis neminem excusat[3],英語:Ignorance of law excuses no one[3]),也稱不知法不免責[4],是一種法律理論,主張不知道有法律存在的個人違反法律也不能免於法律責任。
採用歐盟法律而又有曾受羅馬法影響的當代歐洲國家亦會採用亞里斯多德對此的描述:「每個人都被推定為知法[5]」(nemo censetur ignorare legem;nobody is thought to be ignorant of the law)或者「不知法律有害[6]」(ignorantia iuris nocet;not knowing the law is harmful)。
