Porte Dorée (French pronunciation: [pɔʁt dɔʁe]) is a station on line 8 of the Paris Métro in the 12th arrondissement.

The station opened on 5 May 1931 with the extension of the line from Richelieu–Drouot to Porte de Charenton. It is named after the Porte Dorée, one of the former gates of Paris.

Along with Porte de Bagnolet on line 3, Porte de Pantin on line 5, and Porte d'Italie on line 7, it is one of the four stations on the network built at the former gates of Paris without having originally served as a terminus.
