The Vyazma constituency (No.168[a]) was a Russian legislative constituency in Smolensk Oblast in 1993–2007. It was based in rural central and eastern Smolensk Oblast. The seat was last occupied by United Russia deputy Viktor Derenkovsky, a businessman, who won the open-seat race in the 2003 election.
The constituency was dissolved in 2007 when State Duma adopted full proportional representation for the next two electoral cycles. Vyazma constituency was not re-established for the 2016 election, currently its former territory is split between Smolensk constituency (northern part) and Roslavl constituency (southern part).
