Palawan's 3rd congressional district is one of the three congressional districts of the Philippines in the province of Palawan. It has been represented in the House of Representatives since 2013.[3] The district is composed of the city of Puerto Princesa and adjacent municipality of Aborlan.[4] It was created after the 2012 reapportionment that redrew the boundaries of the 2nd district and allocated a new district for Palawan's capital and only city. It is currently vacant in the 19th Congress since the death of Edward Hagedorn on October 3, 2023.[5]
