Tei Shôkan was a Ryukyuan scholar-official who traveled to Beijing and Edo on several occasions. He served as secretary on the 1791 mission to Beijing, and as gieisei (head of street musicians) on the 1796 Ryukyuan mission to Edo.

While in Edo in 1796, he was interviewed, along with Sai Hôkin, by Akazaki Kaimon, about their experiences in China. These conversations were then published as Ryûkaku danki, and remain a notable source for historians today investigating Ryûkyû-China-Japan relations.
