History[]

Navotas was represented as part of the first district of Rizal from 1907 to 1972, and of Region IV from 1978 to 1984. From 1984 to 1986, Navotas was grouped together with Malabon and Valenzuela as the Legislative district of Malabon–Navotas–Valenzuela for representation in the Regular Batasang Pambansa. From 1987 to 2010, it was represented with Malabon as the Legislative district of Malabon–Navotas. The two cities were separated per the provision in the city charter of Navotas (Republic Act No. 9387[1]) that was approved on March 10, 2007 and ratified on June 24, 2007.
