This is a list of Indigenous Australians who have been members of Australian legislatures{{mdash}}federal, state or territory. This list does not cover those elected to local councils (including mayors), Governors/Governors-General, leaders of political parties (outside of parliament), Indigenous Australians actively involved in political institutions and those who have run unsuccessfully for office.

There have been 40 Indigenous members of the ten Australian legislatures, beginning when Neville Bonner entered the Australian Senate on 15 August 1971. Of these, 22 have been elected to the Northern Territory assembly, eight to the Australian Federal Parliament, four to the parliaments of Queensland and Western Australia, and one each to the parliaments of Tasmania, Victoria and New South Wales and one to the Australian Capital Territory assembly.

Out of the 40 Indigenous Australians elected to any Australian Parliament, 16 have been women.

Nobody of acknowledged Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander ancestry has been a member of the parliaments of South Australia or of the Norfolk Island assembly.{{citation needed|date=February 2015}}

Note: There is considerable debate surrounding the complexity of Indigenous identity. Therefore, this list only includes those who identify themselves as Indigenous Australian. Also note that "origin" or "ancestry" refers to the Indigenous groups, communities, countries, place names or languages which that person identifies with. Some individuals do not have any specific Indigenous group identity and some have multiple identities.

Federal Parliament

Eight Indigenous Australian people have been members of the Parliament of Australia (the Federal Parliament), six in the Senate and two in the House of Representatives. Four of them are in it today.
