The 7th federal electoral district of Hidalgo (Spanish: Distrito electoral federal 07 de Hidalgo) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of seven such districts in the state of Hidalgo.

It elects one deputy to the lower house of Congress for each three-year legislative period by means of the first-past-the-post system. Votes cast in the district also count towards the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies elected from the fourth electoral region.

Suspended in 1943, the 7th district was re-established as part of the 1996 redistricting process. The restored district elected its first deputy in the 1997 mid-term election. The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Mirna María de la Luz Rubio Sánchez of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).

Under the 2023 districting plan adopted by the National Electoral Institute (INE), which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections, the 7th district covers the south-eastern portion of Hidalgo, bordering on the states of Mexico, Tlaxcala and Puebla. It comprises 186 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across ten of the state's municipalities:

• Almoloya, Apan, Emiliano Zapata, Tepeapulco, Tizayuca, Tlanalapa, Tolcayuca, Villa de Tezontepec, Zapotlán de Juárez and Zempoala.

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Tepeapulco. The district reported a population of 424,554 in the 2020 Census.

Between 2017 and 2022, the district was located in the same general area. The head town was still Tepeapulco but it covered a slightly different group of ten municipalities: Almoloya, Apan, Emiliano Zapata, Epazoyucan, Mineral de la Reforma, Singuilucan, Tepeapulco, Tlanalapa, Villa de Tezontepec and Zempoala.
