Vejte from the kindred Csanád (Hungarian: Csanád nembeli Vejte; died after 1200) was a Hungarian lord, who served as Judge royal between 1199 and 1200, during the reign of Emeric, King of Hungary.

Vejte (or Wetich) was born into the Csanád clan which originated from Csanád, who defeated provincial lord Ajtony, an enemy of Stephen I of Hungary in the early 11th century. Vejte had a son, Theodore, the Palatine of Hungary in 1222.

He was first mentioned as ispán of Csanád County in 1199. Beside the position of Judge royal, he also served as ispán of Nyitra County from 1199 to 1200. After that he was the first known ispán of Krassó County in 1200.
