Croydon Central is a constituency created in 1974 and is represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2017 by Labour MP Sarah Jones.^{[n 1][n 2]} The seat bucked the trend in national results in 2019, with Labour holding the seat with a slightly increased majority.

Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat will be subject to moderate boundary changes, including the loss of Croydon town centre (to be included in the re-established constituency of Croydon West), and will therefore be abolished and succeeded by the re-established seat of Croydon East, to be first contested at the next general election.
