Revolutionary Communist Party (in Turkish: Devrimci Komünist Partisi) was a clandestine communist party in Turkey. DKP was formed following the third congress of Communist Party of Turkey/Unity (TKP/B), which was held in Greece in 1989. The founder of DKP was the general secretary of TKP/B, İbrahim Seven. Seven became the general secretary of DKP.

DKP was dissolved in 1991. A major part of the cadre joined the Revolution Party of Turkey (TDP).
