The 7th constituency of the Var (French: ''Septième circonscription du Var'') is a French legislative constituency in the Var ''département''. Like the other 576 French constituencies, it elects one MP using the two-round system, with a run-off if no candidate receives over 50% of the vote in the first round.

==Description==

The 7th constituency of the Var lies in the south west of the department and includes the town La Seyne-sur-Mer opposite Toulon's harbour.

In common with other seats in the department this constituency had a tradition of voting for centre right candidates until 2017 when it swung behind Emmanuel Macron's centrist coalition.
