The special Municipality of Tablas was a municipality within the Province of Romblon in the Philippines from 1940 to 1946. It encompassed the entire island of Tablas with Odiongan, the largest town in the island, as its seat.

History

The special municipality of Tablas was created, together with the special municipalities of Maghali, Romblon, and Sibuyan, by the virtue of Commonwealth Act No. 581 and was enacted without executive approval creating special municipalities in the province on 8 June 1940. A year after World War II, with the help of Representative Modesto Formilleza, Republic Act No. 38 abolished the special municipalities.[5] After the restoration, there were only three municipalities in Tablas. Namely, Odiongan, San Agustin, and Looc. These municipalities would be further divided to form six more new municipalities.[6][7][8][9][10]
