Sanaag ou Sanāg era uma região da Somália, com capital na cidade de Erigavo. Em 1991, a região passou a pertencer a Somalilândia. A partir de 1998, a parte oriental da região passou a ser disputada por Somalilândia e Puntlândia. A partir de meados de 2007, surgiu no território disputado por Somalilândia e Puntlândia, o estado autônomo de Maakhir, que atualmente controla a parte oriental de Sanaag e de sua capital, Erigavo.
