The Central American Parliament, also known by the abbreviation Parlacen (from the Spanish Parlamento Centroamericano) is a political institution devoted to the integration of the Central American countries. This organization is a member of the Central American Integration System (SICA)

The Parlacen represents a modern renewal of the historic Federal Republic of Central America which existed from 1823 to 1840, though not including Costa Rica nor Panama but including Dominican Republic.

The Parlacen has its more recent origins in the Contadora Group, a project launched in the 1980s to help deal with civil wars in El Salvador, Guatemala and Nicaragua. Although the Contadora was dissolved in 1986, the idea for Central American Integration remained, and its works were taken by the Esquipulas Peace Agreement, which, among other acts, agreed to the creation of the Central American Parliament.

The following countries each return 20, 21, or 22 directly elected deputies to the Parliament:

El Salvador
Guatemala
Honduras
Nicaragua
Panama
Dominican Republic
