The Deputy Speakers of the House of Representatives of the Philippines are the second highest-ranking officials of the Philippine House of Representatives. During the absence of the House Speaker, one of the House Deputy Speakers will preside over the House of Representatives.

Usually the house just names 6 people as deputy speakers, but House Majority Leader Rodolfo Fariñas said in August that they will increase the numbers to cater to the supposed move to federalism.[1]

The current Deputy Speakers of the House of Representatives are the following:[2]

Duties and powers
