Tarashany (Ukrainian: Тарашани; Romanian: Tărășeni or Tătărășeni) is a village in Chernivtsi Raion, Chernivtsi Oblast, Ukraine. It hosts the administration of Tarashany rural hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.
Until 18 July 2020, Tarashany belonged to Hlyboka Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Chernivtsi Oblast to three. The area of Hlyboka Raion was merged into Chernivtsi Raion.
According to the 2001 census, the majority of the population of Tarășeni was Ukrainian-speaking (91.89%, or 907 people), with Romanian (6.99%, or 69 people, including 3.65% who called the language Romanian, or 36 people, or and 3.34% who called it Moldovan, or 33 people) and Russian (1.11%, or 11 people) speakers in the minority.
