V4199 Sagittarii is a variable star in the southern constellation of Sagittarius.[8] It is a dim star that is just visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude that varies between 6.22 and 6.28 over a period of 1.23825 days.[9] The star is located at a distance of approximately 689 light years from the Sun based on parallax, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of roughly −23 km/s.[6] It has an absolute magnitude of −0.63,[3] on average.

The stellar classification of this star is B5III,[4] matching a B-type giant star. In the Bright Star Catalogue it was listed as a main sequence star of class B5V, although the colors suggest a somewhat more evolved star.[10] The photometric variability of this star was announced by C. Waelkens and F. Rufener in 1984.[11] It is a multi-periodic[10] slowly pulsating B star with a dominant frequency of 0.80780±0.00010 cycles/day.[12] The star has four times the mass of the Sun and three times the Sun's radius. It is radiating ~316 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 14,700 K. A magnetic field has been detected on this star with a strength of −104±32 G.[5]

It has a magnitude 9.96 companion star at an angular separation of 90.9″ along a position angle of 310°, as of 2003.[13]
