Fuad Eduardo Chahin Valenzuela (born 1 December 1976) is a Chilean politician and lawyer.

He served as Deputy for District 49 (Araucanía) from 2010 to 2014 and also 2014–2018. Similarly, Chahín was president of the Christian Democratic Party from 2018 to 2021.

In the November 2017 elections, Chahin ran unsuccessfully as a candidate for the Senate of Chile for the 11th Circumscription of the Araucanía Region, representing the Christian Democratic Party of Chile within the Convergencia Democrática pact.

He was subsequently elected president of the party for the 2018–2020 term, formally assuming office on 22 June 2018, and resigned from the position on 18 May 2021 following poor electoral results in the 2021 Chilean Constitutional Convention election.
