Hanguanyi 漢官儀 was a book on Han-period 漢 (206 BCE-220 CE) state offices. It was compiled by Ying Shao 應劭 (died c. 203 CE) and represents the regulations of the Former Han period 前漢 (206 BCE-8 CE).
The book enumerated each office, designations, jurisdictions and duties, salaries and income, seals and well as some miscellaneous stories about the individual offices and office bearers.
The original size of the book was 10 juan, but the most substantial part of the book was lost during the very late Han period. One collection of fragments was compiled by Sun Xingyan 孫星衍 (1753-1818), with a size of 2 fascicles, and included in his series Pingjinguan congshu 平津館叢書 and in the Congshu jicheng chubian 叢書集成初編. A second collection is found in Huang Shi's 黃奭 (1809-1853) Hanxuetang congshu 漢學堂叢書. It is also part of the collection Hanguan liu zhong 漢官六種. A version is also found in the Shuofu 說郛.
Another book of the same title was compiled during the Later Han period 後漢 (25-220 CE) by Wei Hong 衛宏. Fragments of this book are assembled in Wang Renjun's 王仁俊 series Yuhan Shanfang jiyi shu bubian 玉函山房輯佚書補編.
Yet another book called Hanguan yi was the product of Liu Ban 劉攽 (1022-1088) of the Song period 宋 (960-1279). It is included in the series Guyi congshu 古逸叢書, Shiwanjuanlou congshu 十萬卷樓叢書 and Wanwei biecang 宛委別藏.
