Herbert Suchiang (c. 1931–2017) was an Indian politician.

Prior to his entry into politics, Suchiang worked for the Indian Audit and Accounts Services. As a member of the Indian National Congress, he was elected to the Meghalaya Legislative Assembly in 1988, and represented Raliang, which covered the West Jaintia Hills district. He took a ministerial post under D. D. Lapang. In 1999, Suchiang won election to the Jaintia Hills Autonomous District Council, within which he served as chief executive member and later chairman.[1]

He died in Guwahati on 15 October 2017, aged 86.[2] Meghalaya Legislative Assembly speaker Abu Taher Mondal released a statement on Suchiang's death on 17 October,[3] the same day Suchiang's funeral was held.[4]
