The legislative districts of Parañaque are the representations of the highly urbanized city of Parañaque in the Congress of the Philippines. The city is currently represented in the lower house of the Congress through its first and second congressional districts.

History

From 1907 to 1972, it was represented as part of the first district of Rizal, and was part of the representation of Region IV in the Interim Batasang Pambansa from 1978 to 1984.

It was granted its own representation in the restored House of Representatives in 1987, and was divided into two districts after its city charter (Republic Act No. 8507[1]) was amended by Republic Act No. 9229,[2] approved on December 17, 2003.
