The Koryak constituency (No.217) was a Russian legislative constituency in the Koryak Autonomous Okrug in 1993-2007. It encompassed the entire territory of Koryak Autonomous Okrug. The seat was last occupied by United Russia faction member Rafael Gimalov, a banker, who defeated first-term incumbent State Duma member Grigory Oynvid in the 1999 election.

The constituency was dissolved in 2007 when State Duma adopted full proportional representation for the next two electoral cycles. Earlier in 2007 Koryak Autonomous Okrug was merged with Kamchatka Oblast to form Kamchatka Krai. Currently the territory of the former Koryak constituency is part of the Kamchatka constituency.
