Teliu (Hungarian: Keresztvár, Nyén, Nyény; German: Kreuzburg) is a commune in Brașov County, Transylvania, Romania. It is composed of a single village, Teliu.
The commune is located in the eastern part of the county, on the banks of the river Teliu. It lies on the border with Covasna County, at a distance of 18 km (11 mi) from the city of Săcele and 25 km (16 mi) from the county seat, Brașov. Teliu is traversed by the National Road DN10, which connects it to Hărman commune to the west and the town of Întorsura Buzăului to the east.
