The Armavir constituency (No.52[a]) is a Russian legislative constituency in Krasnodar Krai. The constituency covers southeastern Krasnodar Krai.
The constituency has been represented since 2021 by United Russia deputy Andrey Doroshenko, a transportation businessman, who won the open seat, succeeding seven-term Communist incumbent Nikolay Kharitonov after the latter decided to successfully seek re-election only through proportional representation.
