Ma Tau Chung Camp (Chinese: 馬頭涌戰俘營) was an internment camp in Ma Tau Chung, Hong Kong during the Japanese Occupation of Hong Kong during World War II.^[1]

The camp was built around 1941, originally as a refugee camp, as North Point Camp and Argyle Street Camp. It was located on parts of today's Ma Tau Chung Road (馬頭涌道) and Ma Tau Wai Estate.^[1]

The camp was closed in 1944 when the remaining Indian POWs moved back to Argyle Street Camp. It was later re-opened as the Ma Tau Wai Camp (馬頭圍戰俘營), holding third country national civilians.^[1]
