Saint-Jean—Iberville—Napierville was a federal electoral district in the province of Quebec, Canada, that was represented in the House of Commons of Canada from 1949 to 1968.

This riding was created in 1947 from parts of Beauharnois—Laprairie and St. Johns—Iberville—Napierville ridings. It consisted of:

  • the city of St. Jean and the county of St. John (except the municipalities of Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel, St. Bernard-de-Lacolle and the village of Lacolle);
  • the county of Iberville and the town of Iberville;
  • the county of Napierville;
  • that part of the county of Laprairie included in the municipality of St-Jacques-le-Mineur.

It was abolished in 1966 when it was redistributed into Missisquoi and Saint-Jean ridings.
