Le Nouvelliste is a French-language daily newspaper printed in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and distributed throughout the country, particularly the capital and 18 of the country's major cities.

The paper was founded in 1898 by Guillaume Chéraquit originally under the name Le Matin, to become Le Nouvelliste 15 months later. Printing was entrusted to Chéraquit's friend Henri Chauvet. Today, Le Nouvelliste is Haiti's oldest and largest daily newspaper.

In April 2024, Le Nouvelliste announced that unidentified individuals had vandalized its premises in downtown Port-au-Prince.[1] Max Chauvet, the newspaper owner, announced that there would be no print publication for a while, and that Le Nouvelliste would only be available online.[2]
