New York State Route 443 is a New York State Route running from Schoharie to Albany, a total of 33.44 miles (53.84 km).

Route 443 begins at NY 30 in Schoharie, and passes through the Helderberg Mountains in the towns of Berne and New Scotland. Within the town of Bethlehem and the city of Albany, Route 443 is known as Delaware Ave., and its eastern terminus is at US 20 (Western Ave.)

This route was originally signed as NY 43, but the NY 43 designation was truncated to Rensselaer, New York at US 9 and US 20 around 1980, and Defreestville, New York at Exit 8 on the non-Thruway segment of Interstate 90 in the mid-1990s. Many of the reference markers along NY 443 bear the number 43 instead.
