Previous districting schemes

2005 district

The twelfth district of Chiapas was located in the extreme south of the state and comprises the municipalities of Frontera Hidalgo, Metapa, Suchiate, Tuxtla Chico and three-quarters of the municipality of Tapachula (the northern quarter of that municipality is in the eleventh district). [3]

The district's head town was the city of Tapachula.

1996–2005 district

Between 1996 and 2005, the twelfth district had a different configuration: it covered Tapachula municipality in its entirety, together with Cacahoatán and Unión Juárez, in addition to those other that it still covers at present. [4]

The twelfth district of Chiapas was created in 1996. Between 1979 and 1996, Chiapas only had nine federal electoral districts. The tenth to twelfth districts elected their first deputies, to the 57th Congress, in 1997.
