Wyoming Territory's at-large congressional district is an obsolete congressional district that encompassed the area of the Wyoming Territory.

On July 25, 1868, an act of Congress gave Wyoming Territory the authority to elect a Congressional delegate, although the first delegate did not take his seat until 1869.[1][2]
