Poul Hansen (alternative spellings include Paul and Povl; later given the epithet Korsør; d. 7 September 1655) was a Danish governor of Tranquebar and colonial overhoved of Danish India from 1648 to his death in 1655. Korsør usurped the governorate from Willem Leyel by open mutiny, after accusing Leyel of purloining money from the Danish East India Company. During Korsør's tenure, the contact with Copenhagen was non-existent, and the Danes resorted to attempting to sell the colony to Brandenburg and the Dutch Republic.
