Haji Lane is one of the roads in the Kampong Glam neighbourhood of Rochor, Singapore. A narrow road, it is one way with traffic flowing from North Bridge Road to Beach Road. In between, Haji Lane also forms a junction with Baghdad Street. Two-storey shophouses with five-food ways border both sides of the road.

According to Singapore Street Names1, Haji Lane passes through land that was once owned by Arab merchant Syed Ali bin Mohamed Aljunied, and was named after the haj pilgrimage. The area was once an enclave of Arab settlers.
