Jiajing (28 January 1522 – 8 February 1567) was the era name of the Jiajing Emperor, the 12th emperor of the Ming dynasty of China. The Ming dynasty used the era name Jiajing for a total of 45 years. It was the second-longest used era name in the Ming dynasty. "Jiajing" was derived from the words 嘉靖殷邦 (Translated: "... but admirably and tranquilly presided over the regions of Yin, ...) in the chapter of Wuyi (無逸, Against Luxurious Ease) in the Book of Documents. When the Jiajing Emperor ascended the throne, the cabinet's candidate era names were the first "Mingliang" (明良; meaning 君明臣良 "the monarch is bright and ministers are good"), followed by "Shaozhi" (紹治; meaning "inheriting the Hongzhi Restoration"), and the third "Jiajing".

On 4 February 1567 (Jiajing 45, 14th day of the 12th month), the Longqing Emperor ascended to the throne and continued to use the Jiajing era name. The era name was changed to Longqing in the following year.
