Bà Rịa was a former provincial city in the former Bà Rịa-Vũng Tàu province in the Southeast region of Vietnam. It adjoined Vũng Tàu across the Cỏ May river and was connected to it by the Cỏ May Bridge on National Route 51. It was the de jure seat of the province, since most of the provincial administration agencies were located there, and in May 2012 Bà Rịa officially replaced Vũng Tàu as the provincial capital of Bà Rịa-Vũng Tàu. The city of Bà Rịa ceased to exist on 1 July 2025, following the elimination of district level units in Vietnam.
