Cazac (French pronunciation: [kazak]; Occitan: Casac) is a commune in the Haute-Garonne department in southwestern France.
Historically and culturally, the commune lies within the Comminges region, corresponding to the former County of Comminges, a district of the province of Gascony located in what are now the departments of Gers, Haute-Garonne, Hautes-Pyrénées, and Ariège. Exposed to a modified oceanic climate, it is drained by the Touch River, the Peyréga stream, and several other small waterways. The commune's natural heritage consists of two protected natural areas of ecological, faunal, and floral interest.
Cazac is a rural commune with a population of 78 in 2022. It is part of the Toulouse metropolitan area. Its inhabitants are called Cazacois or Cazacoises.
