Dofteana (Hungarian: Doftána) is a commune in Bacău County, Romania. It is composed of seven villages: Bogata (Bogáta), Cucuieți (Kukujéc), Dofteana, Hăghiac, Larga (Lárga), Seaca and Ștefan Vodă.

The commune is situated around confluence between the Trotuș and Dofteana rivers, in a beautiful natural place. It was first attested in a document of 1436, issued by the hospodar Ștefăniță, who donated to his adviser Babor Plopescu six villages on the Trotuș and Tazlău valleys, one of which was Dofteana, called Dohtana in that period.
