Matbaa-i Bahriye (c. 1887 - 1926) was the printing house of the Ministry of the Navy (Bahriye Nezareti) in the last years of the Ottoman Empire and the first years of the Republic of Turkey. It was an active publishing house, producing works related to navigation, hydrography, and naval warfare, often in translation from English and other European languages.
