De Zand-dynastie of Zandiyeh dynasty (Zand^ⓘ) (Perzisch سلسله زندیه) regeerde over Perzië van 1750 tot 1794. Ze werd gesticht door Karim Khan, hoofd van de Zand-stam van de Lak, die de macht van de Safawieden en Afshariden overnam.

De hoofdstad was Shiraz. Karim Khan had de Britten een handelsmissie toegestaan te Bushehr.

Na de dood van Karim Khan in 1779 volgde zijn incompetente zoon Abu al-Fath hem op. Zaki Khan, Ali Morad en Jafar Khan konden niet beletten dat de Kadjaren terrein veroverden. In 1789 riep Lotf Ali Khan zichzelf tot koning (sjah) uit. Hij vocht tot 1794 tegen de Kadjaren, maar werd in het fort van Bam gevangen en gedood.
