Cumilla Cantonment (Bengali: কুমিল্লা সেনানিবাস) is a military station of the Bangladesh Army, located near Comilla, Bangladesh. The 33rd Infantry Division is based there.

Construction of the base during the Second World War damaged unsurveyed archaeological remains. Since then, archaeologists have excavated and protected some sites within the cantonment.
