East Thanet is a British parliamentary constituency in the Isle of Thanet in Kent. It previously existed, under the name Thanet East, from 1974 to 1983, returning one Member of Parliament (MP) to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat was re-established as East Thanet for the 2024 general election. It will be formed primarily from the South Thanet parliamentary constituency.
