The Mon National Party (Burmese: မွန်အမျိုးသားပါတီ; MNP) is a political party in Myanmar (Burma). It was renamed from the Mon National Democratic Front in 2014. It contested the 1990 general elections under its former name, winning in five constituencies. The party’s license was temporarily revoked in 1992. The Mon National Party joined the boycott of the 2010 general elections. The party was registered again on 26 April 2012[1] to contest the 2012 by-elections but failed to win any seats.

It fielded 53 candidates in the 2015 general elections, contesting seats in Mon, Thanintharyi and Kayin states, where a large number of Mon people live. The MNP’s objectives include establishing a federal union in which the Mon people can have greater political autonomy.[2]
