Toko Lay (traditional Chinese: 黎土庫; simplified Chinese: 黎土库; pinyin: Lí tǔkù; Jyutping: Lai4 tou2fu3; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Lê thó͘-khò͘; lit. 'Lay Store'; transl. Lay Department Store; Portuguese: Toko Lay; Tetum: Toko Lay) is a commercial building in the centre of Dili, East Timor.
Constructed in 1959 during the Portuguese colonial era, it has always been a hardware store owned by members of the Lay family, a Timorese extended family of Chinese descent.
In the course of the Indonesian invasion of East Timor in 1975, the building served as a refuge; more recently, it was damaged during the violence of September 1999.
