Jan Stejskal (born Brno, 15 January 1962), is a retired Czech football goalkeeper. He played for Czechoslovakia and later the Czech Republic, for both he played a total of 31 matches.

He was a participant in the 1990 FIFA World Cup.

Stejskal was a very tall commanding goalkeeper, with a sound trade but his language problem let him down from time to time. His QPR days were marred by this but he will still go down in history as the best keeper QPR ever had.

In his native country he played for AC Sparta Praha and SK Slavia Praha. He also had a successful spell at Queens Park Rangers from 1990 to 1994. After ending his career, he works as a goalkeeping coach for both Sparta and the Czech Republic national football team.
