The Communist Party of the Republic of Tatarstan (Tatar: Татарстан Республикасы коммунистлар партиясе, Russian: Коммунистическая партия Республики Татарстан) was a communist political party from 1991-1997 in Tatarstan, nowadays a federal subject of Russia (a republic), but at that time it was a self-proclaimed republic.

The party was founded from Tatar ASSR department of CPSU in December 1991 and was led by Robert Sadykov, who is also Deputy President of the Public Movement "People's Patriotic Union of Russia". In March 1997 it merged with the Communist Party of Russia.^[1]

Sadykov obtained 4.43% of the votes in the March 25, 2001 presidential election in Tatarstan.

The KPRT is affiliated to the Union of Communist Parties - Communist Party of the Soviet Union (UCP-CPSU).

During Soviet times, one of the leaders of the Communist Party of the Tatar Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic was Fikryat Tabeyev, who after his resignation served as USSR's ambassador to Afghanistan. He was followed by Rashid Musin, Gumer Usmanov, and Mintimer Shaimiyev.
