Serendah (; Tamil: செரண்டா) is a town and mukim in Hulu Selangor District, Selangor, Malaysia. Located north of Kuala Lumpur, Serendah was originally a home to many tin mines and act as a satellite town to a bigger mining town, Rawang. The town is now growing at a steady phase and is among the largest suburb outside the skirt of Kuala Lumpur on top of being the most populated mukim (township) in Hulu Selangor District.

Serendah is actively growing partly due to the presence of UMW Holdings in the area. An industrial city, named UMW High-Value Manufacturing Park is being constructed that will then house a number of national and multinational companies focused in manufacturing. An East Coast Rail Link Station planned to open in the same proximity will also accelerate this growth further.
