Hamid Chabat (Arabic: حميد شباط – born 17 August 1953, Taza Province) is a Moroccan politician and the previous Secretary-General of the Istiqlal Party. Hamid Chabat has been the mayor of Fes since October 2003 and was elected on 23 September 2003 to lead his party, defeating rival Abdelouahed El Fassi, a relative of former incumbent Abbas El Fassi and grandson of Allal El Fassi. Before holding office, Chabat forged a name for himself in his party's trade union (General Union of Moroccan Workers aka UGTM).
Chabat also owns a regional newspaper covering the Fes region. Chabat left the Istiqlal party to join the Front of Democratic Forces party in August 2021 ahead of the 2021 general election.
