The Myanma Foreign Trade Bank (Burmese: မြန်မာ့နိုင်ငံခြားကုန်သွယ်မှုဘဏ်; abbreviated MFTB) is a state-owned bank specializing in foreign banking. It provides trade finance and foreign exchange-related banking to the government, state enterprises, and the international community residing in Myanmar.

The bank was established under the Financial Institutions of Myanmar Law of 1990.
