List of Asian Australian politicians

This is a list of Asian Australians who have served as members of Australian federal, state, or territory legislatures. Despite Australia's proximity to Asia, as well as the significant and increasing minority of Australians belonging to an Asian ethnicity, the Australian Parliament is considered to be particularly under-representative of its Asian constituents in comparison to other Western multicultural democracies   with members of minority groups making up only about 6 percent of Parliament.

Officeholders
20 Asian Australian people have been members of the Parliament of Australia (the Federal Parliament), including ten each in the Senate and the House of Representatives. The most common represented ethnicity are Chinese Australian (nine) and Indian Australian (three). There are eight incumbent Asian Australian parliamentarians as of 2022.
