Ilocos Sur's at-large congressional district is an obsolete electoral district that was used for electing members of Philippine national legislatures in Ilocos Sur before 1987.[ 1]

Its third district was eliminated following the separation of Abra in 1917.[ 3] 1943 Philippine legislative election for a seat in the National Assembly of the Second Philippine Republic , with an additional seat assigned to its provincial governor.[ 4] [ 1]
In the unicameral Batasang Pambansa that replaced the House in 1978, Ilocos Sur was included in the multi-member regional electoral district of Region I (Ilocos Region ) for its interim parliament . The district was again utilized in the 1984 Philippine parliamentary election when Ilocos Sur was granted two seats in the regular parliament .[ 1] [ 5]
