La base de las Indias Orientales (East Indies Station) fue una formación de la Marina Real británica en activo desde el año 1865 hasta el año 1941.^[1]

Desde el año 1831 hasta el año 1865 las Indias Orientales y la Base China (China Station) formaban un solo comando conocido como Base de las Indias Orientales y de China (East Indies and China Station).^[1] La Base de las Indias Orientales, fundada en el año 1865, cubriá el Océano Índico (con exclusión de las aguas alrededor de las Indias Orientales Neerlandesas, Sudáfrica y Australia) e incluía el Golfo Pérsico y el Mar Rojo.^[2] Estas responsabilidades no implicaban reivindicaciones territoriales, pero la marina de guerra protegía activamente los intereses comerciales de Gran Bretaña.

La Base de las Indias Orientales tenía asentamientos en Colombo, Trincomalee, Bombay, Basora y Adén. En respuesta al incremento de las amenazas por parte del Japón, la Base separada de las Indias Orientales se fusionó con la Base China en diciembre del año 1941 para formar la Flota Oriental.^[3]
