The Lục Tỉnh Tân Văn (1907, Six Provinces News, Chinese 六省新聞) was a Vietnamese newspaper published in Saigon. Although the title was Sino-Vietnamese, the newspaper was one of the first non-Catholic papers to use the Latin quốc ngữ script.

The paper was technically owned by François-Henri Schneider, since only a Frenchman could obtain a license to publish a newspaper, but behind him stood the industrialist Gilbert Trần Chánh Chiếu, in 1908 arrested as a secret backer and organizer of the independence movement.

François-Henri Schneider also was involved with a newspaper in Hanoi, the Đông Dương tạp chí ("East Seas Magazine," Chinese 東洋雜誌).
