The Davao Oriental Provincial Board is the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (provincial legislature) of the Philippine province of Davao Oriental.
The members are elected via plurality-at-large voting; the province is divided into two districts, each with five seats. A voter can vote for up to five names, with the top five candidates per district being elected. The vice governor is the ex officio presiding officer of the Davao Oriental Provincial Board and only votes to break ties. The vice governor is elected via the plurality voting system province-wide.
The districts used in the appropriation of members are coextensive with the legislative districts of Davao Oriental.
Aside from the regular members, the board also includes the provincial federation presidents of the Liga ng mga Barangay (ABC, from its old name "Association of Barangay Captains"), the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK, youth councils), and the Philippine Councilors League (PCL). Davao del Norte's provincial board also has a reserved seat for its indigenous people (IPMR).
