The Sundanese (Indonesian: Orang Sunda; Sundanese: ᮅᮛᮀ ᮞᮥᮔ᮪ᮓ, romanized: Urang Sunda) are an Austronesian ethnic group native to western part of Java island in Indonesia, with the term Tatar Pasundan[4] which covers most of the administrative areas of the provinces of West Java, Banten, Special Capital Region of Jakarta and part of western Central Java. They number approximately 42 million and form Indonesia's second largest ethnic group,[5] and the fourth largest in Southeast Asia.[6] They speak the Sundanese language, which is part of the Austronesian languages.

Sundanese migrants can also be found in Lampung, South Sumatra, and, to a lesser extent, in Central Java and East Java. The Sundanese people can also be found on several other islands in Indonesia such as Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Bali and Papua.
