Chamber of Deputies and Senate: Chile is divided into electoral districts and senatorial constituencies for the election of members of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.
Regional Councils: For the election of members of the Regional Councils, Chile is divided into provincial constituencies, with each province generally corresponding to one constituency, although some provinces are further divided into multiple constituencies.

The article includes lists of the various electoral structures and divisions in Chile.

Chamber of Deputies electoral districts

The Chamber of Deputies consists of 155 members across 28 electoral districts (distrito electoral), each electing between 3 and 8 deputies. These districts were created in 2015 by merging the previous 60 into larger ones.^[1]

1990-2018 senatorial constituencies

Before 2018, there were 19 senatorial constituencies. Each region constituted a senatorial constituency, except for the Valparaíso, Santiago, Maule, Biobío, and La Araucanía regions, which were each divided into two senatorial constituencies. Each senatorial constituency elected two senators. Constituencies that did not correspond to full regions were made up of several electoral districts within a region.

In 2009, the Constitution was amended to ensure that each region constituted at least one senatorial constituency. Before the law defining senatorial constituencies was updated to reflect this change, the list was as follows:

Sen. const.	Informal name	Geographical composition	Last election
1	—	Arica and Parinacota Region (XV), Tarapacá Region (I)	2009
2	—	Antofagasta Region (II)	2013
3	—	Atacama Region (III)	2009
