Johann Nepomuk Karl, Prince of Liechtenstein (Full name:Johann Nepomuck Karl Borromäus Joseph Franz de Paula) (6 July 172422 December 1748) was a prince of Liechtenstein between 1732 and 1748. He was the son of Johann Josef Anton.

When his father died, Johann Nepomuk Karl was only eight and his relative Josef Wenzel ruled as regent. Nepomuk Karl came of age in 1745 and thus took control of Liechtenstein's affairs. In 1744 he had married Maria Josephina von Harrach, (20 November 1727 - 15 February 1788), daughter of Count Friedrich August von Harrach-Rohrau. The couple had two daughters; Marianne (1745-1752) and Maria Antonia (13 June 1749 - 28 May 1813)

Johann Nepomuk died three years later at the age of 24 leaving no male descendants.
