The Libertarian Party (Dutch:Libertarische Partij) is a Dutch political party. It was founded in 1993 and took part in the elections of 1994 for the Dutch House of Representatives. Its founder and chairman is Toine Manders (not to be confused with the VVD MEP with the same name), who works for the Haags Juristen College.

In 2003 the board members Arjan van Eersel, David Dylan Jessurun and Niek Holtzappel, left the party because of a dispute about the party's goals. Their intention was to found a new party, which has yet to occur.
