Sarawak Progressive Democratic Party is a political party in Malaysia. The party is one of the constituent members of the ruling National Front (Barisan Nasional).

The party was founded in the wake of the de-registration of the Sarawak National Party in November 2002 by a faction aligned to the Chief Minister of Sarawak, Abdul Taib Mahmud, led by YB Dato Sri William Mawan ak Ikom.
