The Grammy Award for Best Tejano Album was awarded from 1999 to 2011. In its first year the award was titled Best Tejano Music Performance and in 2000 it was awarded as Best Tejano Performance. The current title has been used since 2001. From 1993 to 1998 Tejano was included in the award for Best Mexican-American/Tejano Music Performance.
The award was discontinued from 2012 in a major overhaul of Grammy categories. From 2012, this category and Best Regional Mexican Album merged to form the Best Regional Mexican or Tejano Album category.
