Unjárga (Northern Sami) or Nesseby (Norwegian) (also Uuniemi in Kven/Finnish) is a municipality in Finnmark county, Norway. The administrative centre of the municipality is the village of Varangerbotn.

On 1 January 1846, the municipality of Nesseby was created by merging the Nesseby area of Vadsø together with the areas of Berlevåg, Polmak, and Tana from Lebesby. Tana and Berlevåg were separated from Nesseby on 1 January 1864 to form the new municipality of Tana. Polmak was separated from Nesseby on 1 January 1903.
