The Syktyvkar Constituency (No.18[a]) is a Russian legislative constituency in the Komi Republic. The constituency encompasses the entire territory of Komi. However, in 1993–1995 Komi had two constituencies but lost one of them due to population decline.

The constituency has been represented since 2021 by Communist deputy Oleg Mikhailov, an ecologist and party activist, who narrowly defeated State Duma rules committee chairwoman Olga Savastyanova to succeed one-term United Russia incumbent Ivan Medvedev.
