Nepenthes × tsangoya (pronounced /nəˈpɛnθiːz sæŋɡɔɪjə/, after Peter Tsang) is a tropical pitcher plant. It reportedly represents the complex natural hybrid (N. alata × N. merrilliana) × N. mirabilis.

N. × tsangoya was mentioned as a natural hybrid in Guide to Nepenthes Hybrids (1995). The known ranges of the parent species only overlap in Mindanao, the Philippines.
