Arran (2021 population: ) is a special service area in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan within the Rural Municipality of Livingston No. 331 and Census Division No. 9. It held village status between 1916 and 2022.

It restructured on January 1, 2023, relinquishing its village status in favour of becoming a special service area under the jurisdiction of the Rural Municipality of Livingston No. 331.
