Yuwa-Kati or Yuwa Kati, officially the Yuwa-Kati Semi-Autonomous Region (YKSAR) (Portuguese: Região Semi-Autônoma de Yuwa-Kati, Japanese: ユワ・カティ半自治区, Russian: полуавтономный район юва-кати) is a Semi-Autonomous Region of Forestia located in the Eugénie Archipelago within the Sea of Japan. With an area of 2.6 square kilometres (1.0 square mile), Yuwa-Kati is the largest Forestian territory.

Originally administratively part of the Russian city of Vladivostok, the island was annexed as an incorporated territory of Forestia on 18 December 2022 as part of a series of territorial annexations being made by the Forestian government.
