The Ufa constituency (No.3[ a] ) is a Russian legislative constituency in Bashkortostan . The constituency covers parts of Ufa , its suburbs and exurbs to the south and west. The present day Ufa constituency was created in 2015 after combining old Kirovsky and Sovetsky constituencies.
The constituency has been vacant since May 5, 2025, following the death of three-term United Russia deputy Pavel Kachkayev .
1993–2003 Kirovsky constituency : Arkhangelsky District , Chishminsky District , Iglinsky District , Karmaskalinsky District , Ufa (Dyomsky, Kirovsky, Leninsky, Sovetsky), Ufimsky District [ 3] [ 4]
The constituency covered southern half of Ufa , including the city historic centre, almost all of its suburbs and some exurbs to its south and east.

The constituency was significantly altered after the 2003 redistricting, losing central Ufa to new Sovetsky constituency and rural exurbs of the city to the Kalininsky constituency . The constituency instead stretched to the south-west, gaining rural areas up to the industrial city of Belebey from the former Tuymazy constituency .

The constituency was re-created for the 2016 election and received a new name "Ufimsky constituency". This seat retained Kirovsky District of Ufa and rural areas to the south and south-west of the city, as well as gained Dyomsky and Sovtesky Districts of Ufa and rural areas west of the city from the dissolved Sovetsky constituency .
