Protovestiarios (Greek: πρωτοβεστιάριος, lit. 'first vestiarios') was a high Byzantine court position, originally reserved for eunuchs. In the late Byzantine period (12th–15th centuries), it denoted the Empire's senior-most financial official, and was also adopted by the medieval Serbian state as protovestiyar (прото-вестијар).
