Yang Tengbo (Chinese: 杨腾波, born 21 March 1974), also known as Chris Yang, is a Chinese businessman. He was barred from the United Kingdom by the Home Office in 2023 following accusations that he was using his relationship with Prince Andrew, Duke of York to spy for the Chinese government in the United Kingdom.
In 2024, a Special Immigration Appeals Commission tribunal upheld the decision to bar Yang, acknowledging that while there was "not an abundant quantity of evidence" against him and there may be an "innocent explanation" for some of the evidence, there was still enough material to support the Home Office's assessment that he posed a national security risk.
