Kaj (Persian: كاج, also Romanized as Kāj; also known as Kach)[3] is a village in, and the capital of, Dargazin-e Sharqi Rural District of Shahanjarin District, Dargazin County, Hamadan province, Iran.[4]

At the 2006 National Census, its population was 1,114 in 292 households, when it was in Darjazin-e Olya Rural District of the former Qorveh-e Darjazin District of Razan County.[5] The following census in 2011 counted 1,133 people in 342 households.[6] The latest census in 2016 showed a population of 1,053 people in 334 households.[2]
