Etibar Salidar oglu Mammadov (Azerbaijani: Etibar Səlidar oğlu Məmmədov; born 2 April 1955 in Baku) is an Azerbaijani politician and the founder of the Azerbaijan National Independence Party (NIPA). First rising to prominence as an anti-communist during the Soviet era, he became one of Azerbaijan's most prominent politicians in the 1990's.

Mammadov, who served in the National Assembly of Azerbaijan from 1991 until 2000, founded the NIPA in 1992. He ran for president of Azerbaijan in 1998 and 2003; in 1998, he placed second with 12% of the vote, while in 2003, he placed fourth with 3%. Mammadov led the NIPA until his resignation on 24 December 2004 following a series of poor performances by the party in recent elections.

At some point, Mammadov was also the vice-chairman of International Democrat Union.
