Since 6 August 2024, the constituency remains vacant.

== Boundaries == The constituency encompasses the [[Port of Chittagong]] and parts of the [[Chattogram City Corporation]], specifically Wards [[South Agrabad Ward|27]], [[Pathantooly Ward|28]], [[West Madarbari Ward|29]], [[East Madarbari Ward|30]], [[Gosaildanga Ward|36]], [[North Middle Halishahar Ward|37]], [[South Middle Halishahar Ward|38]], [[South Halishahar Ward|39]], [[North Patenga Ward|40]], and [[South Patenga Ward|41]], integrating these areas under a single administrative and electoral boundary.<ref name="ecs" />

== History == The constituency was created for the first general elections in newly independent Bangladesh, held in 1973.

Ahead of the [[2008 Bangladeshi general election|2008 general election]], the [[Bangladesh Election Commission|Election Commission]] redrew constituency boundaries to reflect population changes revealed by the [[2001 Bangladesh census]].<ref name="Rahman2010" /> The 2008 redistricting altered the boundaries of the constituency.<ref name="ds11Jul2008" />

Ahead of the [[2014 Bangladeshi general election|2014 general election]], the Election Commission renumbered the seat for [[Sandwip Upazila]] from Chittagong-16 to Chittagong-3, bumping up by one the suffix of the former constituency of that name and the higher numbered constituencies in the district. Thus Chittagong-11 covers the area previously covered by Chittagong-10. Previously Chittagong-11 encompassed all but five [[union parishad]]s of [[Patiya Upazila]]: Bara Uthan, Char Lakshya, Char Patharghata, Juldha, and Sikalbaha .<ref name="maps" /><ref name="ecs" />
