Subang Jaya (commonly called "Subang" by locals) is a suburban city in the Klang Valley, Selangor, Malaysia. It is located about 20 km west from the Kuala Lumpur city centre. It comprises the southern third district of Petaling, making it the 5th most populous city in Malaysia. Subang Jaya consists of SS12 to SS19, Bandar Sunway, USJ, Putra Heights and Batu Tiga. The city is governed by the Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ), which also governs other areas of the Petaling district under Petaling Jaya, Shah Alam, Puchong and Seri Kembangan.

Subang Jaya was originally a township of Petaling Jaya. However, due to the high population and rapid developments, it has earned its own municipality. The city was developed by Sime UEP Berhad, the property development arm of the Malaysian conglomerate Sime Darby. The site was formerly a rubber plantation called Seafield Estate under the municipality of Majlis Bandaraya Petaling Jaya. Construction work for the development of Subang Jaya began in 1974 and was concluded in 1988. Upon the completion of Subang Jaya on the same year, Sime UEP began clearing land for the development of USJ. In 1999, Sime UEP began the development of Putra Heights.



In 1997, Subang Jaya was granted the status of a municipality. Hence, the local authority was transferred from the Majlis Perbandaran Petaling Jaya (MPPJ) (Petaling Jaya Municipal Council) to Majlis Perbandaran Subang Jaya (MPSJ) (Subang Jaya Municipal Council). The MPSJ holds local government authority not only in Subang Jaya, but also USJ, Putra Heights, Batu Tiga, Bandar Sunway, Puchong, Bandar Kinrara, Seri Kembangan, Balakong, and other parts of Petaling district. Subang Parade, Empire Subang, Sunway Pyramid and the hypermarket chain Aeon Big Subang serve as the main shopping attractions around Subang Jaya city centre. In adjacent township of Bandar Sunway, there is the popular Sunway Lagoon, an amusement water theme park which is a popular landmark across the nation.



Subang Jaya is well known as a light industrial hub in the Klang Valley. The main industrial areas are in the city are Subang Industrial Park SS13, Sime UEP Industrial Park, Subang Hi-Tech Industrial Park and USJ 1 through USJ 8, involving in both light and heavy industry. The Malaysia headquarters of PROTON, Lotus Cars, Faber-Castell and many other major international companies are located in Sime UEP Industrial Park.
