Central Italy is a constituency of the European Parliament on the occasion of European elections. It consists of the Italian regions of Lazio, Marche, Tuscany, and Umbria.

As the other Italian constituencies, it has only a procedural goal to choose the elected MEPs inside party lists, the distribution of seats between different parties being calculated at national level (called Collegio Unico Nazionale, National Single Constituency).
