The Legislative districts of Sulu, namely the first and second districts are the representations of the Province of Sulu in the Philippine House of Representatives. Sulu was part of the representation of the Department of Mindanao and Sulu until 1935, when it was granted its own representation as a lone congressional district including Tawi-Tawi before it became a separate province. It then became part of the representation of Region IX from 1978 to 1984. In 1986, it was divided into two congressional districts.
