Andrejs Rastorgujevs (born 27 May 1988) is a Latvian biathlete.

His debut in the Biathlon World Cup was a rather unsuccessful one. In the first event of 2009–10 Biathlon World Cup in Östersund he participated in 10 km sprint, where he finished 47th, but later on he was disqualified for finishing in the wrong lane.[1] 2012-13 Biathlon World Cup was the breakthrough season for Rastorgujevs, finishing the season 36th overall.

Rastorgujevs took part also at the 2010 Winter Olympics, where he finished 50th at the sprint and 58th at the pursuit.
