Bà Rịa (Vietnamese: [ɓaː˧˩ riə˧˨˧ˀ] ⓘ) was a city in the former Bà Rịa–Vũng Tàu province in the Southeast region of Vietnam. Bà Rịa was adjacented to Vũng Tàu by Cỏ May river and connected by Cỏ May Bridge on National Route 51. This was the de jure seat of the province since most of the provincial administration agencies are located here. In May 2012, Bà Rịa officially replaced Vũng Tàu to become the provincial capital of Bà Rịa–Vũng Tàu.
The City of Bà Rịa ceased to exist on July 1, 2025, following the elimination of district level units in Vietnam.
