Sören Halfar (born January 2, 1987 in Hannover) is a German footballer, currently with 2nd Bundesliga club SC Paderborn. Halfar joined SC Paderborn on loan from his home club, the Bundesliga side Hannover 96.

He joined his hometown club's youth ranks in January 2001, and progressed to the senior squad list for the 2004/05 season. He made his Bundesliga debut on January 29, 2005 in a 1-0 win at Arminia Bielefeld. His time since has twice been blighted by torn cruciate ligament injuries, although he has managed a handful of first team appearances in each season since his debut.

He has been mentored by current left back Michael Tarnat, for whom he is seen as the natural replacement when Tarnat retires [1].

His current contract lasts until Summer 2009.

Halfar has 4 caps for the German Under-21 side after progressing from the Under-19s [2].
