The tenth federal electoral district of Chiapas (Distrito electoral federal 10 de Chiapas) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 13 such districts in the state of Chiapas.

It elects one deputy to the lower house of Congress for each three-year legislative period, by means of the first-past-the-post system.

The tenth district of Chiapas was created in 1996. Between 1979 and 1996, Chiapas only had nine federal electoral districts; the 1996 redistricting process increased the number to 12.[1] The tenth district elected its first deputy, to the 57th Congress, in the 1997 mid-terms.

Under the 2023 districting plan, which will be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[2] the tenth district covers nine municipalities:

The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Villaflores.[4]
