Local elections were held in the province of Laguna on May 9, 2022, as part of the 2022 Philippine general election. Voters selected candidates for all local positions: a town mayor, vice mayor and town council, as well as members of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan, the vice-governor, governor, and representatives for the four districts of Laguna, and the lone districts of Biñan, Calamba, and the newly created lone district for Santa Rosa.
Incumbents Ramil Hernandez and Katherine Agapay were re-elected to the governorship and the vice governorship respectively, defeating their closest opponents Representative Sol Aragones and actor Jerico Ejercito.
As the governor, vice governor, and members of the House of Representatives and the Provincial Board are elected on the same ballot, gubernatorial candidates may present a slate of candidates for each position for every district within the province.
