Reza Qoli Khan Ardalan (; 1824–1864) was the penultimate Ardalan governor of Kurdistan from 1834 to 1848 at irregular intervals. He was the son and predecessor of Khosrow Khan III. His mother was Walia, the 21st daughter of Fath-Ali Shah Qajar , the Qajar shah (king) of Iran.

In 1835, Mohammad Shah Qajar sent him to help Bahram Mirza suppress the rebellion of Mohammad-Hossein Mirza, the governor of Kermanshah. In 1838, with the intention of strengthening Qajar authority in Kurdistan, Mohammad Shah gave his sister in marriage to Reza Qoli Khan.
