Sudachō (須田町), officially Kanda-Sudachō (神田須田町), is a district of Chiyoda, Tokyo, Japan, consisting of 1-chōme and 2-chōme. As of April 1, 2007, its population is 1,019.

This district is located on the northeastern part of Chiyoda Ward. It borders (across Kanda River) Soto-Kanda and Kanda-Sakumachō on the north, Kanda-Iwamotochō on the east, Kanda-Kajichō and Kajichō on the south, and Kanda-Awajichō, Kanda-Ogawamachi and Kanda-Tachō on the west.

Sudachō once had a terminal which served for a number of the Tokyo City Streetcar lines. It is one of the few areas that survived the bombing of Tokyo in World War II ^{[citation needed]}, resulting in many historic buildings still existing.

At one time Creatures Inc. had its headquarters in the Nintendo Kanda Building (任天堂神田ビル, Nintendō Kanda Biru) in Sudachō.^[1]
