The 2nd constituency of the Puy-de-Dôme (French: Deuxième circonscription du Puy-de-Dôme) is a French legislative constituency in the Puy-de-Dôme département. Like the other 576 French constituencies, it elects one MP using a two-round electoral system.

Puy-de-Dôme had six constituencies until the 2010 Redistricting of French Legislative Constituencies, which reduced the department's allocation to five. Much of the area of the former sixth constituency was moved into the new second constituency. From 2010, the 2nd constituency of the Puy-de-Dôme covers the northern section of the department including the town of Riom.

In the 2017 legislative election the seat was one of only a few in France that re-elected a Socialist Party deputy.[citation needed]
