List of Asian Academy Award winners and nominees

This is a list of Asian Academy Award winners and nominees.

This list includes Academy Award winners and nominees who have Asian ancestry, including South-Western Asia (the Middle East) and Asian Russia (Siberia). Unlike the list of Black Academy Award winners and nominees, this list recognizes Asia as a continental entity, and not as a racial entity. Asia is large and diverse region with a large variety of racial and ethnic groups, and therefore this list is not expected to limit itself to just the cinematic achievements of East Asians. People who were born in Asia or have Asian citizenship but do not have any documented Asian ancestry (such as Liv Ullmann or Natalie Portman) are not qualified to be on this list. Hapas (people of mixed Asian descent) on the other hand do qualify. For the category of Foreign Language Film, this list also includes Asian countries, or films in an Asian language, in addition to films with an Asian director. This list is current as of the 80th Academy Awards ceremony held on February 24, 2008.
