Egawa Tarôzaemon was a [[Tokugawa shogunate]] official who served as Nirayama [[daikan]], overseeing [[Izu province]] and some of the surrounding areas, in the late 1840s until his death in [[1855]].

He died on 1855/1/16 at his [[Edo]] residence. He was later posthumously granted the Senior Fourth Rank, and was succeeded as ''daikan'' and ''teppôkata'' by his son [[Egawa Hidetoshi]] (Yasunojô).
