Kalinga-Apayao was a province of the Philippines in the Cordillera Administrative Region in the island of Luzon.

This RA amended the earlier Republic Act No. 4695, passed on June 18, 1966, which formed the provinces of Kalinga-Apayao, Benguet, Ifugao, and Mountain Province, from the earlier Mountain Province.
