Ivan Yevstafyevich Khandoshkin (1747 - 1804) was a Russian Empire violinist and composer of Ukrainan Cossack origin. He has been described as the "finest Russian violinist of the eighteenth century".

Khandoshkin extant works comprise six violin sonatas and several variation cyclces based on folk songs. His music (primarily for the violin) is comparable to music by his contemporaries such as Giuseppe Tartini's student, Antonio Lolli, Gaetano Pugnani, and Ludwig Spohr.
