The Legislative Districts of Iloilo, namely the first, second, third, fourth and fifth districts, are the representations of the Province of Iloilo in the Philippine House of Representatives. The province has been divided into five congressional districts since 1907. Minor adjustments were made to the third, fourth, and fifth districts in 1922 through Act No. 3036, and a major reorganization of the composition all the province's districts, except the first, was made upon the restoration of the House of Representatives in 1987. From 1978 to 1984, it was part of the representation of Region VI and from 1984 to 1986, it elected 5 assemblymen at-large.
Iloilo City was last represented as part of the province in 1986, electing its own representative in the lower house starting 1987. The sub-province of Guimaras was last represented as part of the second district in 1995, after which it elected its separate representative as an independent province.
