The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) said the flying insects had been spotted in Rayleigh in Essex.
The species pose no greater risk to human health than the native wasps and hornets.
However, they are known to be predators of other insects such as honey bees, and can raid hives and eat them.
"By ensuring we are alerted to possible sightings as early as possible, we can take swift and effective action to stamp out the threat posed by Asian hornets," said Nicola Spence, Defra's chief plant and bee health officer.
"That's why we are working at speed to locate and investigate any nests in the area following this confirmed sighting.
"While the Asian hornet poses no greater risk to human health than other wasps or hornets, we recognise the damage they can cause to honey bee colonies and other beneficial insects."
Richard Ridley, an ex-chairman of the Essex Beekeepers' Association from Saffron Walden, said: "I would be concerned if I was living anywhere in Essex. Asian hornets are destructive and we would rather they stayed the other side of the channel. They can decimate hives and hugely reduce honey yields. They hover outside of the hives and picks them off one by one."
